One Vanderbilt is asking $322 per square foot — among the highest figures in Manhattan's office market. Delivered in 2020 by SL Green, the 1.75 million square foot tower sits directly adjacent to Grand Central Terminal, positioning it at the intersection of Midtown's two most critical infrastructure assets: Penn Station-bound and Metro-North commuter access. The building draws financial services firms, law firms, and institutional tenants for whom address, transit access, and physical quality are non-negotiable line items. At 1,401 feet, it is the tallest office building in New York by occupied floor space. The combination of new construction, transit adjacency, and a landlord with demonstrated commitment to amenity programming explains why this building occupies its own tier in the Manhattan rent conversation.

Trophy is a branding and marketing agency for NYC office buildings. We work with landlords and ownership groups to build the leasing brand — the positioning, the visual identity, the story that makes a building worth what it's asking. $100 Foot Club is Or's field notes on the buildings already there. trophy.inc

Welcome to the $100 Foot Club, the series where we check out New York's top office buildings.

I'm Or Lev-Cohen, founder of Trophy.

And the building behind me is arguably the most prestigious one in Manhattan, which is saying a lot.

Built in 2020 with 1.75 million square feet and literally steps away from Grand Central.

I'm obviously talking about one Vanderbilt.

So, Trophy quality build, brand new, amazing location.

It only makes sense, or I don't know, maybe.

But it only makes sense that they've gotten the insane rent of $322 a square foot.

Asking, but still very respectable.

So, one Vanderbilt. This is the $100 Foot Club.

And I'll see you on the next one.
