135 West 50th Street, known as the Sports Illustrated Building, is a 23-story office building located in the heart of Midtown Manhattan. Built in 1963, it is a notable example of mid-century modern architecture.

The building has a rich history, having housed prominent tenants such as Sports Illustrated, Zales, and the New York Telephone Company (Verizon's predecessor). Its prime location offers proximity to iconic landmarks like Radio City Music Hall and Rockefeller Center.

In recent years, the building underwent significant renovations. George Comfort & Sons, with the help of Gensler, transformed the building's facade and lobby, adding modern amenities like a double-height lobby and a second-floor amenity center. The renovations aimed to revitalize the building's appeal in the competitive Manhattan office market.

Despite its historical significance and prime location, the building has faced challenges in recent years, reflecting broader trends in the Manhattan commercial real estate market.

TPG Rewards Testimonial

TPG Rewards testimonial To whom it may concern, This letter is written in support of Mr. Stephen Sunderland. Mr. Sunderland acted as our advisor and broker in our recent search for office space in Manhattan. From our first meeting Mr. Sunderland sought to understand our location, price, office layout and square footage needs. He closely accessed our initial needs, and made realistic suggestions to improve on them. The true measure of Mr. Sunderland's professionalism is that he delivered listings, and ultimately a deal, that closely related to our initial wishes and needs. Throughout our relationship he gave us sound advice as to the pros and cons of each location, and later on how to best work with the landlord in order to create an amicable deal. Mr. Sunderland is a knowledgeable real estate professional who I recommend without any reservation. Sincerely, John S Galinos,President and CEO, TPG Rewards Inc, 111 John Street,27th Floor New York, NY 10038.
