About 590 Madison Avenue
590 Madison Avenue, also called the IBM Building, stands in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, where 57th Street meets Madison Avenue. Edward Larrabee Barnes and Associates designed the 41-story tower, which is 184 m (603 ft) high. Developed for the technology company IBM, it was built between 1978 and 1983. IBM's headquarters had occupied an earlier building on the site from 1938 to 1964, and the new tower was first owned by IBM, which is why it carries the company's name.
The plan is an irregular pentagon, with a diagonal chamfer taking the place of a rectangular slab's southwest corner. The facade combines gray-green glass with polished granite, and Barnes intended it to give the building the look of a prism. The northeast corner is a cantilever above the main entrance, and the tower has no setbacks along its height. Barnes said the pentagon was meant to draw attention to the public atrium at the southwest corner. Because that atrium sits at the southwest corner and the tower covers only 40 percent of the site, the rest of the building could rise without setbacks.
Wind-tunnel tests showed that the first design, with widely spaced groups of columns, lacked rigidity and would have let the building sway, so the structure was stiffened, with columns every 4.3 m (14 ft). The glass-covered atrium was built under the 1961 Zoning Resolution, which rewarded developers who included open space with a zoning bonus, and the atrium's presence enabled an addition of 9,300 m2 (100,000 sq ft) of floor area, the equivalent of five stories. A sawtooth glass canopy rises 21 m (68 ft) over most of it.
