One Court Square

One Court Square, also known as the Citigroup Building, is a 50-story 673 feet office tower in Long Island City, Queens across the East River from Manhattan in New York City. It was completed in 1990 by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill LLP for Citigroup. The building stood as Queens' tallest from its completion until the topping out of Skyline Tower in 2019. In 2012, Brooklyn real estate investors Joel Schreiber and David Werner purchased One Court Square for $481 million from Stephen L. Green's SL Green and JPMorgan Asset Management.
Since opening in 1990, the tower had been the tallest building in New York state outside of Manhattan, and the tallest building on Long Island for 29 years. In 2019, the building was surpassed by the Brooklyn Point Tower and the Skyline Tower in height to be demoted to the third tallest building on Long Island, and the second tallest building in Queens. Later, in 2021, it will also be surpassed in Queens by Queens Plaza Park, which will rise to 755 feet .
