From a bustling and busy location steps from Times Square and practically perched atop New York's subway network, to a history rich in creative endeavor, to a newly conceived aesthetic designed to inspire and energize, to a state-of-the-art telecommunications infrastructure, The Plant at 321 W 44th Street is an ideal location to grow your business. Let The Plant be the nerve center of your organization and creative hub for your employees and clients.
John Lennon recorded Imagine here. Bruce Springsteen recorded Born to Run here. Aerosmith, Jimi Hendrix, Cheap Trick, the Allman Brothers, Cindi Lauper, and Van Halen have all recorded culturally iconic smash hits here.
The Record Plant, a tenant of the building from the late 60's to the mid-80's, was the first studio to provide the music artist with a comfortable, casual environment for recording. A trailblazing innovator in the recording industry, The Record Plant single-handedly changed studios from what they were—fluorescent lights, white walls, and hardwood floors—into the living rooms that they are today. Teams of artists, producers, and technicians came together to produce.
For years, The Plant has been the focal point of collaboration between talent, energy, and purpose. Let The Plant be the same for your business.
We are proud to announce our collaboration with FAILE, the Brooklyn-based artists Patrick McNeil and Patrick Miller. Famed for their wide-ranging use of multimedia and distinctive iconography, FAILE recently designed and installed an exterior mural on the east-facing face of The Plant. Elements of the mural pay homage to the building's rich history as a creative engine in the heart of New York's Times Square/Theatre district.
Creativity, Energy, Collaboration: FAILE's mural both echoes and continues the unique narrative of The Plant.
