French, whose eponymous building further down Fifth Avenue was a paragon of Art Deco Style.

Bien's son, who oversaw the project, noted that the 'new, broader windows give much better views and let in more light,"There is on-site parking with special rate for shareholders, a gym, and 24-hour white-glove service and a separate attended service/freight elevator is accessible on each floor.
