Hearst Tower is an office building located in Hell's Kitchen, near Midtown, Manhattan. Historically, it's been the home of a wide range of publications owned by the Hurst family. Designed by architect Joseph Urban as instructed by the building's original owner, William Randolph Hurst, it was completed in 1928 and today is a designated Landmark site. The original intention was for the six-story building to be the foundation of a skyscraper, but the skyscraper tower was postponed for almost 80 years until 2006.
Today the tower, which was designed by architect Norman Foster, is 46 stories tall and is used solely as office space. The building won the Emporis Skyscraper Award, which designates it as the best skyscraper built in the entire world in 2006. It was also the first officially "green" high-rise office building built in NYC. Environmentally-friendly elements include heat conductive limestone in the atrium, rain collecting on the roof that's then used for the cooling system, and 85% recycled building materials.
