02.18.10 (posted on 02.21.10) - i had facilitated a training this afternoon at one chase manhattan plaza. the training room had fantastic views of the downtown manhattan skyline. the building is 60 floors tall making it the 11th tallest building in nyc and the 40th tallest in the u.s. in the courtyard is a sculpture by artist, jean dubuffet titled group of four trees. it was commissioned in 1969 by david rockefeller and chase manhattan bank. the piece's organic form is an interesting contrast between the angular buildings and vast architectural canyons of the financial district.
