That's a twofer!  But what is that building?  I know it's an iconic New York City office building by a famous mid-Century modern architect, but I can't remember what it's called or who designed it.  Help me out!

This is what comes out when you google this picture:

Unilever’s history in the USA began when Lever Brothers factories opened to make Sunlight soap in 1899 in Boston and Philadelphia. Several of our brands were on sale across North America by the early 20th century.

In 1952, Lever Brothers opened its Lever House office on Park Avenue – a blue-green glass-covered tower 24 storeys high, which spanned the block from 53rd to 54th street. It won the Office of the Year award in 1953.
