renovation of the subway entrance, office tower lobby, and surrounding plaza at 560 Lexington Avenue has created a bright, fresh, and reimagined public amenity in Midtown Manhattan.

Constructed in the 1980s, this Privately Owned Public Space was originally characterized by dark brick and bronze-colored metal. Surrounded by an enclosure composed of the same dark materials, the subway entrance was secured at night by an industrial roll-down gate, obstructing views throughout the plaza.

SOM sought to brighten this public space with a light palette of limestone, white granite, and stainless steel. A highly transparent glass and steel subway enclosure provides visibility and openness throughout the plaza. This curvilinear structure is self-supporting, eliminating the need for obstructive vertical mullions and enhancing the sculptural quality of the entrance. Its integrated stainless steel benches provide seating in the plaza, while a glass swing gate, engineered to nest in the concave form of the enclosure, offers an elegant solution to the security needs of the subway station.

Below, the design language of the enclosure’s geometry continues with curved limestone walls and glass guardrails, inviting pedestrians down a sweeping staircase to the subway and New York Public Library branch beyond.

The glass, limestone, granite, and steel material palette carries into the office tower lobby, where acid-etched, mirror-backed glass feature walls compliment the building’s new reception desk and elevator cabs. New metal and glass storefronts also contribute to the modernization of 560 Lexington Avenue, drawing even more visitors to enjoy this reinvigorated public amenity for the Midtown neighborhood of New York City.




装修的地铁出入口,办公楼的大堂,在列克星敦大道560号周围的广场创造了一个明亮、清新,并将公共设施在曼哈顿市中心。

在20世纪80年代建造的,这个私有的公共空间最初的特点是黑色的砖和青铜色的金属。被包围的一个封闭的外壳组成的相同的黑暗材料,地铁入口是由一个工业卷帘门夜间担保,阻碍了整个广场的意见。

SOM试图照亮这个公共空间与光的调色板,石灰石、白花岗岩、不锈钢。一个高度透明的玻璃和钢地铁机箱提供了知名度和开放性,在整个广场。这种曲线结构是自立,消除阻塞性垂直竖框和提高入口雕塑质量的需要。它的集成不锈钢长凳提供在广场的座位,而玻璃门,设计的窝在外壳的凹形式,提供了一个优雅的解决方案的地铁站的安全需求。

下面,该外壳的几何设计语言继续弯曲的石灰岩墙壁和玻璃护栏,让行人下楼梯到地铁和纽约公共图书馆分行之外。

玻璃、石灰石、花岗岩、钢铁材料的调色板带到办公楼的大堂,在酸蚀刻玻璃,镜背墙建筑的新特点赞美前台和电梯轿厢。新的金属和玻璃的店面也有助于列克星敦大道560号的现代化,从而吸引更多的游客来享受这重振公共设施为纽约市中心附近。
