When Philip Johnson and John Burgee designed 550 Madison, they drew upon the fundamental principles of classical architecture to create a building that felt monumental, modern, and completely different from what had come before. The Olayan Group built on that foundation, reimagining the property for the way we live today: bringing in daylight and air, designing a world-class tenant amenity destination, and creating a new greenscape.

Enhancements
From the enlarged public garden to the new amenity areas and flexible work floors, 550 Madison has been entirely reimagined.
Clean Air
At 550 Madison, we know that the health of a building translates directly to the wellness of its occupants—which is why we’re proud to be both LEED Platinum and WELL Gold certified. Our commitment to a sustainable space is evident in abundant daylight, while a best-in-class filtration system offers clean, fresh air.
The Garden
Enlarged to almost twice its former size, The 550 Garden offers a welcoming place for gathering and refreshment. Visitors can enjoy a vibrant setting with lush trees, artisanal food kiosks, and a peaceful fountain.
