The ambitious project included the addition of a monumental new office entrance, a 100-foot-long fourth floor sky lobby, and the opening of four contiguous floors of prime Times Sq. retail space, created by moving the original office entrance, to deliver significant street presence.
Positioned at the center of the Theater District, 1560 Broadway is a landmark of commerce that now takes an even more prominent place in this location, drawing people to world-renowned shows, major retailers, and a multitude of eateries.
