The One World Trade Center is a massive building. It’s the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere and towers over the rest of the island. Having an office with a One World Trade Center address carries a certain caché. After all, an office in one of the world's most iconic buildings says something about a company's power and success.
The new World Trade Center complex is visibly and obviously different from the old, but when you dig deeper the change is more than skin deep. One of the most striking changes is the sorts of companies that are calling the buildings home. The Financial District as a whole has seen an increase in tech companies and the World Trade Center is no different.
