240 Greenwich Street, also known as One World Trade Center, is a 104-story skyscraper located in Lower Manhattan, New York City. It is the main building of the rebuilt World Trade Center complex and is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, standing at a height of 1,776 feet (541 meters).
Construction on the building began in 2006 and was completed in 2014. The building officially opened to the public in November 2014. It is home to various tenants, including offices, observation decks, and a memorial museum honoring the victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
The building's design features a minimalist aesthetic with a sleek glass façade. It was designed by architect David Childs of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, and features a unique structure known as the "spire" at its top, which adds to its height and distinctive appearance.
240 Greenwich Street has become an iconic symbol of resilience and strength in the face of tragedy, serving as a tribute to the lives lost during the 9/11 attacks and a symbol of New York City's enduring spirit.
