Standing 1776 feet high to commemorate the year the American Revolution started, One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the Americas. The beautiful and innovative design incorporates elements of the previous “Twin Towers” that were tragically destroyed by terrorists in 2001. At the same time, it is unique, beautiful, modern, and functional in its own right, looking to the future, not the past. Even the name, though intended to number the tower as the first of several in the World Trade Center complex, can also suggest the concept of “one world” to counteract the ideologies of hate and division behind terrorism.

If you’d like to work in this inspiring modern building, this article can be a useful guide to where you can put in applications as we run down some of the top tenants located there.
