666 Fifth Avenue is a 41-story office building on Fifth Avenue between 52nd and 53rd Streets in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. The office tower was built in 1957 by Tishman Realty and Construction, which sold it when the corporation dissolved in 1976. 666 Fifth Avenue was bought by Sumitomo Realty & Development in the late 1990s, and Tishman Speyer bought it back in 2000, adding tenants before selling it yet again to Kushner Properties in 2007. In 2017, Kushner Properties announced plans to repurpose the building to a design by the Iraqi-British architect Zaha Hadid.... ____________________________________ Shortcuts to chapters: 00:00:52 Construction, Tishman ownership, and sales 00:03:42 Repurposing ____________________________________ Copyright WikiVidi.
