Bloomberg Tower
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
One Beacon Court (also called the Bloomberg Tower), is a skyscraper on the East Side of Midtown Manhattan. It houses the headquarter of Bloomberg L.P. It is located at 731 Lexington Avenue (between East 58th and 59th streets). The mid-block public space at the base of the building is called Beacon Court. The building stands at 54 stories tall, reaching 806 feet (246 meters). Construction started in 2001 and was completed in 2005.
Horizontal metal rims rise from the street level up to the tower and annex. These pose an opportunity for people who want to climb up the tower so as a result, security guards have been placed at these rims and are supposedly able to deal with anyone trying to climb them.[citation needed]
The building's zip code is 10022.
