History

 
The Pan Am Building era (the 1980s)

The Pan Am Building opened as a headquarters building of Pan Am (Pan Am) on March 7, 1963. For that time, it was the world's most expensive commerce office building [1]. It is an important corner of Skyline of Manhattan and is one of the American 50 University Building. It is the principal of Bauhaus, and a design is a combination design of Walter Gropius and Pietro ベルスキ and others considered to be a great master of the modernism architecture.

Pan Am had been owning this building for many years, and the logo mark of the terrestrial globe that a logotype of "PAN AM" was a trademark of Pan Am in East-West aspects was created in the aspect of the north and south of the building, and this building was a symbol of the prosperity of Pan Am which led world aviation industry.
However, when it is the late 1970s, the management of Pan Am begins to turn worse, and Pan Am comes to cannot but sell a building and sells a building to the metropolitan life insurance (Metropolitan Life Insurance Company, メットライフ) of the life insurer in 1981. In メットライフ, substitution, the building name changed their name from a logo of Pan Am which was to the north and south to "メットライフビル" in a company's logo at time when Pan Am stopped business in 1991, too [2].

In 2005, メットライフ sells a building for 1,720 million dollars. I recorded the best amount of money for an office building of the United States of America. The buyer was joint venture of Tishman Speyer Properties and New York City employee resignation pension fund, New York City teacher retirement annuity fund.

Even helicopter service to John F. Kennedy International Airport was known, and this building was able to go to an airport from the copter pad of the roof in seven minutes. This service was carried out only for February 18, 1968 and the room of several months of 1977 from December 21, 1965. However, the accident that sent five dead people on occurred, and this service was finished [3]; [4]. Four visitors who helicopter S-61 which turned of the rotor still overturns for an inoperative undercarriage on May 16, 1977, and was waiting for a copter are the death. Michael フィンドレイ of the エクスプロイテーション filmmaker was included in the dead person. Furthermore, Madison Avenue and the walker one whom there was at the corner of the 43rd Street died of the piece of the rotor which flew around a building. In addition, two people suffered a serious wound.

Another famous event is suicide of Eri, Max Black happened on February 3, 1975 in the history of this building. He who was CEO of the united fruit (existing Chiquita company) broke a window with a bag and I jumped off the 44th floor and fell to Park Avenue and died. This event laid groundwork for the movie similar suicide scene to appear in "now in the future" of 1994.

Over 1977 through 1984 of the Pan Am Building era, the final of quiz show "United States crossing ultra quiz" (Nippon Television) of Japan was performed in the roof of this building.

Summary of the building

There is this building in the immediate north side of the station building of Grand Central, and it is right under the building, and there are huge station facilities of two levels of structure.

The most famous "resident" of this building set up the den in the building, and the dove was used as the name of two main characters of the superman in Royce and two falcons with the nickname called Clark which there was as bait later.
