As pointed out on Curbed, I took a trip around World Trade Center Building 7 on afternoon on the way back to the office. It is quite an impressive building – the curtain wall is marvelous. Even the bunker-like base is quite nice. I have to hand it to SOM on this one – the building shines.
Now the only question is, who will rent space in a building next to a giant hole? At night there are many floors with the tell-tale construction lights shine proudly. Hopefully the building will find tenant, if only to bring more life to Downtown.
