500 Fifth Avenue is a 60-story, 697-foot-tall office building located on the northwest corner of Fifth Avenue and 42nd Street in Midtown Manhattan, New York City. Designed by Shreve, Lamb & Harmon in the Art Deco style, it was constructed from 1929 to 1931.

The building was developed for businessman Walter J. Salmon Sr. and features a facade of bronze, limestone, and terracotta at the base, with brick cladding above the fourth floor. Its design incorporates setbacks, typical of the Art Deco style and mandated by the 1916 Zoning Resolution.

The building's strategic location next to Bryant Park and the New York Public Library makes it a prominent feature of the Midtown Manhattan skyline. Its lobby boasts ornate Art Deco details, including brass and marble finishes.

Brightwater Fund LLC Testimonial

Brightwater Fund LLC testimonial Dear Mr. Sunderland: Thank you for the outstanding service you gave to us as we searched for office space. Through your efforts, you found us a location and facility that is virtually an exact fit for our needs. You helped us with the lease negotiations and were able to procure the space at a very attractive price. In short, you got us a great deal! You went above and beyond the call of duty in working with us until we moved in. You were always accessible and prepared to help us in every way. We would highly recommend you to our other friends and colleagues in their search for best available/best fitting space for their needs. Very truly yours, Donald Krueger Chief Financial Officer.

Why Optimal Spaces –
Tenant Broker

  • No fee for clients renting space.
  • We work for YOU, not the landlord.
  • Save 15–20% on your business costs.
  • Save 100–200 hours of research.
  • Access to all available spaces.
  • Specialized real estate expertise.

Alone or with other broker

  • Miss deals and hard-to-find spaces.
  • Potential conflict of interest (often represent landlords).
  • Only 10% of available spaces are online.
  • Lack of specialized expertise.
  • May not get the best terms or uncover hidden costs.
Why Use a Tenant Broker: Your Advocate in Commercial Real Estate
1. The Crucial Distinction: Whose Side Are They On?
2. It Almost Always Costs You Nothing
3. Access to “Hidden” Inventory
4. Negotiating Beyond Base Rent
5. Time Savings & Process Management
6. Mitigating Risk (the “Gotchas”)
Summary: Don’t rely on the landlord’s agent. A tenant broker is your advocate, provides better data, negotiates a complete package, and typically costs you nothing.
