Americas Tower, also known as 1177 Avenue of the Americas, is a 50-story, 692-foot (211 m) skyscraper in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, at Sixth Avenue and 45th Street. Construction began in 1989 and was expected to be completed in 1991. This schedule was altered when construction was halted in December 1989 due to lawsuits. In February 1991, construction resumed. Swanke Hayden Connell Architects designed the tower in a mixture of the art deco and postmodern styles. The facade is made of polished reddish-pink granite. The tower was sold in 2002 for US$ 500 million to a group of German-American investors.
