When Olympia and York gutted and rebuilt 466 Lexington Avenue at 46th Street, for example, the new building was named Park Avenue Atrium, (which happens to have one of the most spectacular atriums in the city).

 The Midtown Book - 570 Lexington Avenue   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-18)
Tucked behind St. Bartholomew’s Episcopal Church that fronts on Park Avenue, this tower boasts a fantastic top that may well be the most original and attractive skyscraper roof in the world.
The lobby is quite small but sublimely elegant with its rippled pink marble walls and vaulted gilded ceiling and subtle lighting, giving the effect of being wrapped snugly in satin made of the sun’s fibers at some glorious sunset.
The pinkish and rose hues of the building are unusual in the city and have well stood the test of time and complement perfectly the Byzantine splendor of the adjacent church and the reddish masonry facade of the smaller, but also respectful, office building adjacent to the south at 560 Lexington Avenue.
