About THE GARDENS 780 W 3RD

Nuveen Real Estate is re-positioning 780 Third Ave. as The Gardens at 780, capping a $40 million, “biophilic” upgrade of the 512,000 square-foot office tower at East 48th Street that was originally the Wang Building.

Led by New York design studio Architecture Plus Information, known also as A+I, 780 Third Ave, The Gardens, will feature a 12,000-square-foot publicly accessible park with decorative planters and a walkable skylight set above the new LaFolina restaurant. LITEFLAM XT 120 IGU will provide unique setting with sunlit views to the street level above.
