Milton Glaser’s Headquarters Trades in Midtown South
Compass vice chair Adelaide Polsinelli sold 207 E. 32nd St., the Beaux-Arts headquarters of celebrated graphic artist Milton Glaser. The New York Review of Books acquired it for $7.5 million.
The circa-1902, 9,000-square-foot office building served as the clubhouse for Tammany Hall Central Association. It later became the home of New York Magazine, which Glaser launched as a standalone publication in 1968 with partner Clay Felker.
Glaser, renowned for his “I ❤ NY” logo,” later established his own headquarters there. He passed away in June.
“I began the marketing process in 2019 and was able to identify purchasers who could feel the ‘magic’ in this iconic building,” said Polsinelli. “By introducing nontraditional bidders to the sales process, I successfully found two who simply had to have the building. After a competitive bidding process, Milton chose the buyer who would continue the legacy of greatness that has always filled the space.”
