Built by Jack Resnick & Sons in 1984, the 1.1 million square foot tower was designed by Swanke Hayden Connell Architects, and stands as one of lower Manhattan's trophy assets. Owned and operated by the Resnick Organization, the iconic One Seaport Plaza rises 35 stories along the East River and is a unique architectural achievement. As it is, contextual in its concept and design, with its two distinctly different granite façades designed to suit the different environments at the historic South Street Seaport to the East and Downtown Manhattan to the West.
