Photos—David Mitchell Located adjacent to Madison Square Garden in one of Manhattan's busiest commercial hubs, Two Pennsylvania Plaza is part of a larger neighborhood repositioning initiative. As part of this effort, the midcentury building underwent extensive upgrades, including a new curtain wall, lobby, and enhanced amenities, positioning it to compete with the more modern, high-rise developments in nearby Hudson Yards.

Alongside these infrastructural improvements, the owner dedicated one of the building’s high-rise floors to serve as a marketing center for leasing tours. The space is divided into three smaller, fully furnished show suites, each offering varying layouts that demonstrate the flexibility of the floorplan while showcasing soaring ceiling heights and panoramic views of Lower Manhattan.

Drawing inspiration from residential design, the suites feature a refined material palette of white oak, vein-cut travertine, and Roman plaster, creating an elevated, welcoming atmosphere that distinguishes the building from its competition. The approach proved successful—prior to the project's completion, all three marketing suites were leased.
