Occupying the grounds of the twin towers, the One World Trade Center (also known as "1 WTC" or "Freedom Tower") is a shining beacon for New York City. Designed by the architect David Childs, whose masterpieces included the Burj Al Khalifa and Willis Tower, the skyscraper soars to a symbolic height of 1,776 feet, the year of America’s independence. The 1 WTC serves as the main building after the reconstruction of the World Trade Center complex. It stands as the 6th tallest building in the world, unsurprising considering that it's the tallest in the Western Hemisphere. It has the same name as the original North Tower of the World Trade Center before it was destroyed in the 9/11 attacks.

This innovative structure connects impeccably to the city with links to a vast underground transportation network. Be awe-inspired by the gleaming crystal-like façade of the One World Trade Center and capture its kaleidoscopic beauty as its surface changes according to the seasons and time of the day. Do not leave without gazing at the panoramic vista of New York City and the Atlantic Ocean from the One World Observatory.
