The 42-story New York City Landmark building stands {{convert|572|ft|m}} tall and is known for its exterior walls that are completely clad with stainless steel.{{sfn|Cobb|2010|p=204}} HistoryThe building, designed by prominent New York architects Harrison & Abramovitz, was completed in 1956.[2] Mobil Oil Corporation was the anchor tenant, occupying half of the building from 1956 to 1987.[3] The company had their previous headquarters on 26 Broadway. In 2003 its facade was designated as a Landmark by the Landmarks Preservation Commission, considered as "one of New York City's most striking skyscrapers".[5][4] It was the first skyscraper to have its exterior wall completely clad with stainless steel.{{sfn|Cobb|2010|p=204}} When opened, it was also the largest air-conditioned building in the world.[5] The building was acquired in April 2016 by real estate investor David Werner for $900 million.[6][7] It was previously owned by Hiro Real Estate Co., a Japanese investment firm,[8] who put it on the market in 2014.[9] ArchitectureAt the center of the block, atop a three-story base, is a 42-story tower, oriented from east to west, flanked by thirteen story wings.[4] According to Cobb, the facade consists of approximately {{convert|750,000|lb|kg}} of {{convert|0.038|in|mm|sing=on}} thick pleated chromium nickel stainless steel Type 302.{{sfn|Cobb|2010|p=204}} Up to 7,000 panels embossed with pyramidal forms in high relief,[10] are combined with blue opaque glass windows.[11] A contemporary office building that also made generous use of this material was the Inland Steel Building in Chicago, designed by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill in 1956–1957.[4] According to architectural historian Christopher Gray, "By using steel panels on the 1.6 million square foot building, the team gained several inches of floor space on the inside wall, greatly reduced labor costs on the skin, and saved weight—the panels weighed two pounds per square foot as opposed to 48 pounds per square foot for brick". It remains the largest stainless-clad skyscraper in the world.[12] A considerable amount of stainless steel was also used in the lobby and for the elevator doors. The panels were press formed into a trihedral pattern to prevent waviness and to break up reflections. The appearance of the Socony–Mobil Building led critics to call it "the waffle building". However, in 2003, the building near Grand Central Terminal was named "one of New York's most striking skyscrapers" by the Landmarks Preservation Committee. The building was cleaned for the first time in 1995.{{sfn|Cobb|2010|p=204}} See also
