3 World Trade Center

With a structure that is exposed and visible, the Rogers Stirk Harbour + Partners design for 3 World Trade will stand out at the center of the World Trade center site. The defining aspect of 3WTC is its load-sharing system of diamond-shaped bracing, which helps to articulate the building's east-west configuration. This allows unimpeded 360-degree panoramic views of New York.

The three-story high lobby will provde visitors a "big picture window" of the memorial outside. Upper level floors will straddle those beneath in a ‘podium building formation, lending the tower a distinct interlocking nature and facilitating the high occupancy of the office floors.

Finally, the redeveloped Cortlandt and Dey Streets that interface with 175 Greenwich Street will improve the accessibility both of the retail space in the building and of the WTC Transportation Hub to the north of Dey Street.
