50 Hudson Yards ranks as the fourth largest office tower in New York City in terms of available leasable area, with 2.9 million square feet (270,000 m2) of commercial space.

[13][14] Before construction on 50 Hudson Yards began, BlackRock agreed to move its headquarters to the building in 2016, as the anchor tenant.

[17] In November 2019, it was announced that Meta, then known as Facebook, would occupy 1.2 million square feet (110,000 m2) of space in 50 Hudson Yards.

Its facade, made of glass and hand-carved Italian marble, features three stacked rectangular components of diminishing size.

[24] In January 2019, the developers unveiled two unnamed starburst-shaped sculptures made of painted steel, aluminum and fiberglass, crafted by American artist Frank Stella which sit in the building's lobby.

Additionally, a pair of large-scale abstract sculptures rendered from painted steel, aluminum and fiberglass, can be found hanging from the ceiling in the ground-level lobby area and are also works of Frank Stella.
