Three World Trade Center is a 1,079-foot, 80-story office building completed in 2018 for Silverstein Properties. Designed by Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners, 175 Greenwich is at the center of the various buildings around the WTC Memorial site. As a result, it stands centrally across Greenwich Street from the main axis formed by the two reflecting pools of the Memorial. The design of the tower addresses this central position and accentuates the building's verticality relative to the Memorial site. As suggested in the World Trade Center Master Plan, this verticality—relative to the adjacent and smaller building at 150 Greenwich Street—is also accentuated by the stepped profile of 175 Greenwich Street.
The tower is structural-expressionist in style. The exterior exhibits a load-bearing steel lattice and a curtain wall of steel and silver-blue glass.
The antennas that were supposed to cap each corner were not included in the final plan due to supposed budgetary reasons, with an alleged $16 billion missing in the project due to overrunning and other reasons. One wall of the lobby contains "Joystick", a 46-foot-wide (14 m) mural by James Rosenquist. The building serves as the New York City headquarters of McKinsey & Company. Other offices are occupied by Hudson River Trading.
