118 m of 525 Lexington Avenue, 32 mm on your shelf
Make this print opens the generator on a 600 m square around the landmark. Buildings print at close to true scale, so the landmark grows with the print size.
- Tall, narrow, stepped tower
The tower rises in narrow steps between taller neighbors. Print slowly with good cooling for the upper steps, and use 0.12–0.16 mm layers to keep each setback crisp.
- One piece with the ground
525 Lexington Avenue is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors

- File format
You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
About 525 Lexington Avenue
525 Lexington Avenue stands in Midtown Manhattan. Over the years it has also been called the New York Marriott East Side, Halloran House, the Shelton Towers Hotel and the Shelton Hotel. It has 34 stories and is 387 ft (118 m) tall. Arthur Loomis Harmon designed it in a classical style, and James T. Lee, who was First Lady Jacqueline Bouvier Kennedy Onassis's grandfather, developed it.
It went up in 1922–1923 as the Shelton, an apartment hotel. Setbacks in the design follow the 1916 Zoning Resolution, and, when built, the Shelton was described as the tallest hotel in the world. The lowest two stories are limestone, with grayish-brown brick, terracotta and limestone trim above. Its amenities, in the manner of a clubhouse, included squash courts, billiard tables, a swimming pool, a gymnasium, a bowling alley and Victorian-style Turkish baths.
It was finished in January 1924, at first admitting only men, and admitted women from later that year; Alfred Stieglitz and Georgia O'Keeffe were among its tenants. The upper stories originally held 1,200 rooms, cut to about 650 in the late 1970s, and terraces open to the air sit on floors 15 and 31. Critics widely praised the design on completion, and it has been cited as an influence on other buildings such as the Empire State Building. The Marriott East Side received New York City landmark designation in 2016.
