7 World Trade Center marks the gateway to the new World Trade Center and heralds the spirit of redevelopment and renewal in Lower Manhattan. Located in the heart of New York's financial district, 7 WTC is one of New York City's first green office towers and it offers unparalleled access to the City's and the region's entire transportation network. The 741-foot-tall building contains 42 tenant floors averaging 40,000 square feet. Tenant floors begin at the 10th floor above grade; the entire building is 52 stories. The first 10 floors are dedicated to building services and a Consolidated Edison substation that supplies electrical service to Lower Manhattan.
The 15,000 square foot triangular park was created by David Childs with Ken Smith and his colleague Annie Weinmayr, of Ken Smith Landscape Architect. The park comprises an open central plaza with a fountain and flanking groves of sweetgum trees and boxwood shrubs. At the center of the fountain, sculptor Jeff Koons created Balloon Flower (Red), whose mirror-polished stainless steel represents a twisted balloon in the shape of a flower.
