Description:
One Chase Manhattan Plaza, completed in 1961, has 60 floors, with 4 basement floors, and is 813 feet (248 meters) tall. Built in the International style, with a white steel facade with black patterns just below the windows and Designed by Gordon Bunshaft of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, Chase Plaza echoes the Inland Steel Building in Chicago. The facade is adorned with anodized aluminum panels, mullions, and column cladding.
The Chase Manhattan Bank president of that time, David Rockefeller, the current patriarch of the Rockefeller family, was the prime mover of the construction and the building's location, notably because many corporations had moved uptown, and the Financial District had languished as a result. One Chase Manhattan Plaza is currently occupied by the successor to the "Rockefeller Bank", JPMorgan Chase & Co.
