Charn Langford 5



 1 world trade center

Designed by architect David Childs the building has some large shoes to fill. It is very modern with clever design features hidden all about and filled with amenities like quick elevators. It stands as the tallest building in the western hemisphere at a patriotic 1,776 ft from the tip of the antenna, and the habitable areas end at 1,368 ft, which was the height of the twin towers. Even with all of the technology and nostalgia it seems the people of NYC are skeptical due to a lack of mixed-use capabilities in many of today’s modern buildings.
