Vornado Realty Trust marked the completed transformation of 33rd Street into the dynamic new Plaza33, a pedestrian plaza at the doorstep of Manhattan?s new West Side. Developed through a public-private partnership with the NYC Department of Transportation, the promenade boasts mature trees, lush landscaping, circular stone benches, and colorful chairs and tables. Plaza33 is dedicated to beautifying the surrounding neighborhood and providing a new connection to transit, amenities, nearby office buildings and over 70 new food and beverage offerings, from Los Tacos to Avra, providing a wide range of options.

Vornado and NYC DOT first launched Plaza33 as a seasonal pilot program, with Vornado now having completed the permanent Plaza33 designed by award-winning Mathews Nielsen Landscape Architects. In conjunction with the 34thStreet Partnership special entertainment programming has been developed for the plaza that is free and open to the public including music, dance, and educational series.
