New York's One World Trade Center sized up for $3bn sale

摘要

New York's One World Trade Center, one of the world's most iconic skyscrapers, is being lined up for a $3bn (£1.98bn) sale as part of an audacious bid to reform its ownership. New York governor Andrew Cuomo and his New Jersey counterpart Chris Christie are plotting a huge shake-up of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey that would involve the sale of its sprawling real estate holdings. These include the World Trade Center scheme in lower Manhattan, where more than 2,700 people died on 11 September 2001 following terrorist attacks. The site is now home to the new 3m sq ft, 104-storey One World Trade Center, which saw its first tenant Conde Nast move in last November.
