The Landmarks Preservation Commission's building records date the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building to 1950-1952, designed by Carson & Lundin. City tax records list 1949 as the year built. The building is 28 floors tall.

Carson & Lundin, according to the Landmarks Preservation Commission's building records and its original use as an office building.

Yes. The Landmarks Preservation Commission designated the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Company Building an individual landmark on April 23, 1985 (LP-01447). Changes to a designated landmark, including many storefront, window and signage changes, need a permit from the Commission.

The MTA lists it as an accessible station. Also nearby: 5 Av/53 St (the E and F trains), 5 min walk; 5 Av (the 7, B, D, F and M trains, connected to 42 St-Bryant Pk), 7 min walk.

The NYC Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists RCPI 600 FIFTH HOLDINGS, L.L.C. as the owner of record of the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building (BBL 1012640030). Big buildings are usually held through a company set up for that one property, so the name on the roll can differ from the landlord's brand or the managing agent. Deeds and mortgages for the lot are public in ACRIS, the city's property records system.

Leasemark does not have the building's tenant roster, but SEC filings name companies with offices at the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building. 2 investment managers and funds file 13F holdings reports from the address: Bridgewater Advisors Inc. and Electrum Group LLC. Private companies do not file with the SEC, so the full list of tenants is longer, and a company can also report a building it owns.

The Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building last sold in February 2011 for $165 million, according to the deed recorded with the city. COLLEGIATE ASSET MANAGEMENT CORP. sold it to RCPI 600 FIFTH HOLDINGS, L.L.C.. That comes to about $424 per square foot of floor area. The deed is ACRIS document 2011020700861001 (BBL 1012640030) in the city's property records. A sale of the company that owns a building is not recorded as a deed, so it would not show there.

The Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building's 2024 Local Law 84 benchmarking filing got no ENERGY STAR score (a campus of several buildings cannot get a score), and Local Law 33 letter grades come from that score, so the filing does not yield an A to D grade. Its site energy use came to 87.9 kBtu per square foot, 76% above the national median of 49.9 for a similar property. Its greenhouse gas emissions were about 71,221 metric tons of CO2e (8.84 kg per square foot). The filing covers 6 tax lots together, so these figures are for the whole property.

In the last two years, interior work was permitted on 6 floors (floors 1, 10, 16, 19, 21 and 26, the cellar and the underground). The newest build-out, on floor 19, was first permitted in February 2026 (construction, mechanical, plumbing, sprinklers; filed cost estimate $320,000). These are the Department of Buildings' DOB NOW work permits for tax lot 1012640030. A permit is approval to do the work; it does not say who the work is for or whether it is finished.

The Department of Finance's 2026/27 assessment roll lists a taxable value of $66.9 million for the Manufacturers Hanover Trust Building.

At least one storefront here has been reported vacant at the end of every year since 2022. These are the owners' filings with the Department of Finance under Local Law 157, so a storefront vacant on December 31, 2025 may have been leased since.
