One Penn Plaza is a skyscraper, the tallest building in Pennsylvania Plaza near Pennsylvania Station in New York City, west of Seventh Avenue, between 33rd and 34th Streets opposite Madison Square Garden.
It was designed by Kahn & Jacobs and completed in 1972. It reaches 750 feet (229 m) with 57 floors. The tower has three setbacks at 7th, 14th, and 55th floors. From its location on the West side of Manhattan, most South, West and North facing tenants have unobstructed views of the Hudson River.
The building has 14 entrances and 44 elevators in seven banks. An underground car park provides 695 spaces for cars. Direct passageways at each end of the building connect to the Pennsylvania Station, which is located underground and one block south. The ground floor is leased to several commercial tenants, including the top floor of a large and mostly underground K-Mart store, and a restaurant.
It is built with structural steel and concrete, with grey solar glass and anodized aluminum on the outside walls.
One Penn Plaza is owned by Vornado Realty Trust.
