A Look Inside The Newest World Trade Center Tower

The World Trade Center complex is once again inching toward completion.  7 World Trade was Larry Silverstein’s first completed development on the hollow ground.  This 47-story, 743 ft. tall glass tower has slowly started to see some new neighbors move back into the hood.  One World trade, which is slated for a completion date within the next few months, has lately claimed so much fame after topping out slightly before Hurricane Sandy.  While two other projects remain stalled (the developer is not moving forward until having committed tenants), a third building has quietly climbed 978 feet up into the sky.

The Real Deal went on a behind the scenes tour of the new building.  The photos below have been taken from the article which can be read in full detail here.  4 World Trade is scheduled to before the end of the year.  

Quote of the Day

“New York City is a great monument to the power of money and greed… a race for rent.” Frank Lloyd WrightEarlier this week, I went on a run uptown and caught a glimpse at the soon to be completed One57, Gary Barnett’s latest development.  The tower’s penthouse is currently in contract for $90+ million.  The building itself has also seen its rise in popularity after Hurricane Sandy left the construction crane dangling roughly 1,000 ft. above the streets of New York.  If money, greed, and beauty were to all mix, I would say this building, and New York in general, form the perfect mosaic.
