4 World Trade Center |
|
| Address: | 150 Greenwich St. |
| Developer(s): | Silverstein Properties |
| Architect: | Fumihiko Maki |
| Floors: | 61 |
| Height: | 947 feet |
| Status/Comments: | APPROVED. Billed as
the "lightest" tower slated for the redeveloped WTC site, the
minimalist structure will be clad in perforated aluminum. The building
begins with a trapezoidal footprint, but -- utilizing a prismatic form
to satisfy the master planning strictures -- its uppermost section pulls
back and tapers into a parallelogram angled toward the memorial
quadrant.
NOTE: Pre-approved as part of the master redevelopment plan agreed to by City Hall, developer Silverstein, the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation, and site's owner, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. |
