The Clocktower
Restaurant
Standing on the corner of Madison Square Park in New York City, the eponymous Met Life Tower once served as Metropolitan Life Insurance Company’s executive offices. Rockwell Group led an extensive restoration of the building's landmarked second floor to unveil The Clocktower, the New York Edition’s Michelin-starred restaurant from acclaimed English chef Jason Atherton and restaurateur Stephen Starr.

Each of The Clocktower’s five rooms pays homage to cultural excellence: great American artists are at the heart of the bar room, where an opalescent globe pendant by artist Eric Schmitt presides over dozens of framed artists’ photographs around the circular bar.
Quintessential New York street scenes and other American icons star in the additional three dining rooms, where velvet banquettes, mahogany, and bronze-accented furniture cast an understated elegance that captures the building’s turn-of-the-century heyday.
