Let’s talk about finding a place to work that doesn’t make you dread Monday mornings: 16 East 34th Street office space. Sitting between Madison and Fifth Avenue—that sweet spot in Midtown South where everything just works— this 22-story building from 1925 got a complete makeover in 2014, so you get old-school character with modern touches.

The Backstage Pass to Midtown

Let’s face it—location matters, and 16 East 34th Street office space puts you right where the action is without drowning you in it. You’re just steps from the Empire State Building but safely removed from the tourist chaos, with 345,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed space at your disposal. The 2014 renovation didn’t just touch up the paint—it completely overhauled everything that actually matters for your daily operations. With generous 15,000 to 18,000 square foot floor plates, your team can breathe and work without feeling stacked on top of each other. Main Place Liberty Group owns the building while Cushman & Wakefield handles all the day-to-day management headaches, freeing you to focus on running your actual business instead of playing amateur building manager on the side.

Office Space That Doesn’t Make You Miserable

Know that feeling when you’re freezing but your coworker’s sweating? Not here. 16 East 34th Street gives you tenant-controlled HVAC—set your own temperature and open actual windows when you need fresh air. Four elevators mean no awkward waits with that client you’re trying to impress. The private entrance on 33rd Street lets you slip in after oversleeping without the whole building knowing. After the 2014 renovation, everything mechanical works like it should—no surprise outages or “maintenance emergencies” during your biggest presentation.

Stuff That Makes Your Day Better

Forget rooftop yoga and kombucha on tap. 16 East 34th Street office space delivers perks you’ll actually use:

  • Always-On Access: Got a deadline? Early meeting? Late night? Your keycard works 24/7, so your schedule stays yours.
  • Space That Makes Sense: Those 15,000-18,000 square foot floors let you create an office that works for your team, not against them.
  • Elevators That Show Up: Updated systems mean less time waiting and more time doing what you’re paid for.
  • Temperature Control That Works: No more office sweaters in July—you decide when it’s too hot or too cold.
  • Location You Can Brag About: “I’m right by the Empire State Building” beats “We’re in that random building nobody can find.”

Happy Commutes, Happy Life

Getting to 16 East 34th Street office space is actually doable without losing your mind. Jump on the B, D, F, or M trains to Herald Square, or grab the 6 to 33rd Street Station. Both are a quick walk away. Coming from Jersey or Long Island? Penn Station is right there. Lunch options? Everywhere. Need fresh air? Herald Square and Greeley Square Park are your outdoor offices. Coffee emergencies, client dinners, last-minute shopping—it’s all minutes away from your desk at 16 East 34th Street.

Neighbors That Make You Look Good

Your company ID shows 16 East 34th Street office space—the same address Cornell University picked for their school of industrial relations. You’re sharing elevator rides with folks from WeWork, fashion players from Roytex, and education experts from Academics in Motion. That’s the kind of business neighborhood that makes clients notice your address and think, “These people must be serious.” Because let’s be honest—in Manhattan, your address says something about your business before you even open your mouth.
