A dramatic, full-floor environment opens with soaring ceilings, polished concrete floors, and exposed beams that immediately communicate a loft-style character rare at this scale. From the elevator vestibule, the floorplate unfolds in three distinct open zones, each shaped by abundant natural light from multiple exposures. The front section begins with an expansive open area that stretches across a long wall of oversized windows facing Fifth Avenue, allowing daylight to sweep across the floor and illuminate the entire depth of the space. The ceiling height, combined with the uninterrupted span between columns, amplifies the feeling of volume and creates an interior that feels both modern and adaptable.
Moving westward, the plan flows into a second open area that forms a natural continuation of the first. This middle section sits adjacent to the building core, giving it convenient access to restrooms, elevator banks, and utility spaces without breaking the visual openness of the floor. Its proportions accommodate a large central workstation bullpen, a collaborative project zone, or a combination of team clusters and breakout seating. The clean white structural surfaces and polished floors support a flexible approach to furnishing, enabling both open-concept creative layouts and more traditional workstation densities.
Beyond this central section, a doorway leads into a third open area located on the east side of the floor. This wing feels like a distinct workspace of its own, separated just enough to create privacy for a departmental team, a studio function, or a quiet production area. With its own perimeter windows and generous depth, this area can operate as a stand-alone team room while remaining fully integrated into the full-floor plan. The spacing of the windows and the alignment of the structural columns give this section a strong architectural rhythm that reinforces its versatility.
Across all three open areas, perimeter windows run nearly uninterrupted, offering two and three-sided exposures depending on where one stands. This abundance of natural light elevates the character of the entire floor, providing bright working conditions throughout the day and giving the full-floor layout an unusually airy quality. New white-box finishes highlight the raw architectural elements while providing a clean canvas for the incoming tenant. The landlord’s willingness to offer a tenant improvement package or work directly on a customized build-out further enhances the appeal, allowing a company to introduce private offices, conference rooms, or specialized rooms precisely where they fit best.
As a full-floor opportunity with three distinct open zones, abundant windows, and dramatic ceiling height, the space is exceptionally well-suited for creative firms, technology companies, design studios, showrooms, or any business requiring a blend of visual openness and flexible programming options. The combination of natural light, modern finishes, and a highly adaptable plan creates a floor that can support multiple departments while still feeling cohesive and interconnected.
Notes: Featuring up to 30-foot ceiling heights and a full floor opportunity at the top of the building, with direct access to the roof patio. Currently in white boxed condition. The landlord will either work with the tenant for a build-out or provide TI.
Designed by architect James B. Baker the 12-story structure – drew inspiration from French Gothic chateaux, giving the Presbyterian Building spiky dormers capped with finials, a red tile roof and an imposing entrance-way of successively smaller arches leading to an ornate lobby.
Today No. 156 Fifth Avenue remains an striking presence on lower Fifth Avenue, amazingly little unaltered.
