This walk through the east side of Midtown South includes an unusual collection of buildings, each different from the next. We have a surprising modernist apartment building among the genteel town houses of Murray Hill; Ely Jacques Kahn’s most impressive office building at Two Park Avenue (and another Kahn building that’s no slouch); a modernist hotel by Corbett, Harrison & MacMurray; a work by Edgar Brandt, the great French iron master; the iconic Empire State Building; an incomplete attempt by Metropolitan Life to capture the Empire State Building’s “world’s tallest” title; and a late Deco apartment building by George and Edward Blum.
