The tower is a reinforced concrete, shear-wall/core structure and was the tallest structure of this type in New York City when completed. A concrete hat-truss at the top of the building ties exterior columns with the concrete core.

A similar structure was used for Trump World Tower. Trump World Tower Trump World Tower, as seen from the Empire State Building in Midtown Manhattan. ...


Ordinarily a building of that height could not have been built on the small site. By mixing uses (retail, office, and residential), constructing a through-block arcade (connecting to the IBM building to the east), and using the air rights from Tiffany’s flagship store next door, and including the atrium (designed as a “public space” under the city codes at the time), Trump was able to assemble a bonus package that enabled a taller tower.

The building’s public spaces are clad in Breccia Pernice, a pink white-veined marble and brass and mirrors are used throughout.

The atrium is crowned with a skylight. In 2006, Forbes Magazine valued the tower at $318 million.[1] This article does not cite any references or sources. ...
