Fed up with cookie-cutter offices that promise everything but deliver nothing? 919 Third Avenue office space cuts through the noise with exactly what professionals like you actually need in Midtown Manhattan.

Not Just Another Glass Tower

Remember that bland office where you couldn’t even tell what floor you were on? 919 Third Avenue office space couldn’t be more different. Built in 1970 around the historic P.J. Clarke’s restaurant (yep, they refused to move and developers worked around them), this 47-floor landmark has personality. Nat King Cole called P.J.’s burgers “the Cadillac of burgers” – and they’re still serving them downstairs. After a major 2015 renovation, the building combines old-school character with modern updates across its 1.5 million square feet. Former home to legal powerhouse Skadden until 1999, it now houses companies that want both prestige and practicality.

Offices That Actually Work

Your team needs functional space, not just pretty views (though you get those too). 919 Third Avenue office space features efficient floor plans that don’t waste your square footage on awkward layouts. Need natural light? Floor-to-ceiling windows deliver plenty while showcasing Midtown views that impress clients. The 2015 renovation updated all systems, so you won’t deal with ancient heating or spotty internet. Whether you need 1,000 or 100,000 square feet, the building can accommodate your exact needs without making you pay for space you don’t use.
