4 World Trade Center (New York City, New York)

Four World Trade Center is a 977-foot, 72-story office building completed in 2014. Designed by Fumihiko Maki of the Tokyo-based architectural firm Maki and Associates, 150 Greenwich Street is the fourth tallest skyscraper on the World Trade Center site. With offices beginning at 139 feet above street level, the building includes 53 office floors that total 1.8 million square feet.

The podium of the building consists of the ground floor as well as three additional levels above grade and two floors below grade that are dedicated for retail use - a total of 146,000 sq ft (of which 89,000 sq ft is at or above street level). The project provides access to the transportation and retail concourse below grade connected to the central PATH terminal. The lower portion of the tower, up to the 49th floor, is in the shape of a parallelogram. The upper floors are in the shape of a trapezoid, shaped so that it opens toward the tip of Manhattan Island and also triangulated to face One World Trade Center. Five levels of mechanical floors top the tower. The southwest and northeast corners of the tower are articulated with deep notches in the two broad angles of the exterior to help define the edges of the façade. The building is clad in a curtain wall of aluminum and silver reflective glass. The lobby has soaring 46-foot high glass walls on three sides combining with an inner wall of gleaming black granite.

Two thirds of the office space are occupied by the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey and City of New York, and the rest are occupied by Silverstein Properties for commercial tenants. The interior lobby was used as a filming location for the HBO series "Succession".

  • 150 Greenwich Street is the address for a new skyscraper to be erected as part of the World Trade Center reconstruction in New York City. The office building has also been referred to as World Trade Center Tower 4 and will be on the east side of Greenwich Street, across the street from the original location of the twin towers that were destroyed during the September 11, 2001 attacks. Noted architect Fumihiko Maki was awarded the contract to design the building which will be 947 feet (288 m) tall,[1] which will make it the fourth tallest skyscraper on the World Trade Center site.[2] New revised plans state the tower will now rise a total of 975 feet (297 m).[citation needed] The total floor space of the building is anticipated to include 1.8 million square feet (167,000 square meter) of office and retail space.[3] Excavation for the new building is expected to commence in 2007 and the building will be completed by 2011. The structural engineer for the building is Leslie E. Robertson Associates, New York City.[4]
