Tallest New York city building - One World Trade Center

By
Real Estate Agent with Douglas Elliman Real Estate

One World Trade Center, also know as Freedom Tower is currently under construction in Financial District of Lower Manhattan, today, it technically became New York City's tallest building. Today, the workers erected steel columns on the 100th floor, 1,271 feet above the street, to make it stand 21 feet higher than the Empire State Building's observation deck.

 


Downtown Manhattan, Financial District has becoming a very residential neighborhood other than having commercial office spaces. The completion of the World Trade Center will bring in much more retail space, large transit hub, and many more international residents into the neighborhood and area. We believe this is a great neighborhood to invest and keep an eye on for so many reasons.

If you or someone would like to invest in Manhattan New York today, we encourage to give us a call today at (917) 837-8869 or email at EHSU@elliman.com.

Thanks for the terrific pictures. Wondered about the progress of the building. World Trade Center was one of my favorite spots in New York. Can't wait to visit Freedon Tower!

It must be an adrenaline rush for those workers to be going up so high everyday, putting up new floors and the views they must see.
