The 427-meter skyscraper is located on East 42nd Street and Vanderbilt Avenue. Right next to the legendary Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan. Its 72 floors cover an area the size of more than 30 football fields. Insider.

One Vanderbilt is 99% leased to tenants, including TD Bank and private equity firm The Carlyle Group.

That's no small feat at a time when offices are struggling with working from home.

Walker & Dunlop, which finances commercial property investments across the country, also has offices in the tower. Companies pay dearly for their offices, starting at $130 per square foot compared to an average of $83 per square foot for the area as a whole.
