World Trade Center Re-Opens For Business 13 Years After 9 / 11 Devastation

Over a decade after the tragic events of the 9/11 terrorist attack, which claimed the lives of over 2,700 people, the “new” World Trade Center is officially opening for business again. For years and years, this was the area resembling a hellish pit, in which workers found mostly body parts and debris from the twin towers which once stood there. Given the name of “ground zero” for the gruesome aerial terror attack, it was the last thing more than 2,700 people saw, as they greeted their untimely death on September 11th, 2001.

But as of yet, the 16-acre site is whole again. A 104-story, $3.9 billion skyscraper has risen from the ashes of Twin Towers 1 & 2. Representing the centerpiece for the whole area, One World Trade Center dominates Manhattan’s skyline. The New York City skyline is whole again, as One World Trade Center takes its place in Lower Manhattan.It sets new standards of design, construction, prestige and sustainability; the opening of this iconic building is a major milestone in the transformation of Lower Manhattan into a thriving 24/7 neighborhood.” said Patrick Foye, executive director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey that owns both the building and the World Trade Center site. Now that the construction fences are gone, the tallest building in the United States is considered by Conde Nast CEO Chuck Townsend as the “most secure office building in America”.

 Townsend’s company will start moving into it Monday in 2015.
About 3,000 employees will join the 170 expected to move in
then.The publishing moguls will take over five floors of One World
Trade Center.
