7 World Trade Center

7 World Trade Center is a building in the World Trade


Center complex in Lower Manhattan, New York City.
The current incarnation is the second building to bear that
name and address in that location. The original structure was completed in 1987 and was destroyed in the
September 11 attacks. The current building opened in
2006. Both buildings were developed by Larry Silverstein, who holds a ground lease for the site from the Port
Authority of New York and New Jersey.

commercial oce building in New York City to receive


the U.S. Green Building Councils Leadership in Energy
and Environmental Design (LEED) certication, where it
won a gold rating. It was also one of the rst projects accepted to be part of the Councils pilot program for Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design Core and
Shell Development (LEED-CS).[11]

The original 7 World Trade Center was 47 stories tall,


clad in red exterior masonry, and occupied a trapezoidal
footprint. An elevated walkway connected the building to
the World Trade Center plaza. The building was situated
above a Consolidated Edison power substation, which imposed unique structural design constraints. When the
building opened in 1987, Silverstein had diculties attracting tenants. In 1988, Salomon Brothers signed a
long-term lease, and became the main tenants of the
building. On September 11, 2001, 7 WTC was damaged
by debris when the nearby North Tower of the World
Trade Center collapsed. The debris also ignited res,
which continued to burn throughout the afternoon on
lower oors of the building. The buildings internal re
suppression system lacked water pressure to ght the res,
and the building collapsed completely at 5:21:10 pm, according to FEMA,[6] while the 2008 NIST study placed
the nal collapse time at 5:20:52 pm.[7] The collapse began when a critical internal column buckled and triggered
structural failure throughout, which was rst visible from
the exterior with the crumbling of a rooftop penthouse
structure at 5:20:33 pm. The collapse made the old 7
World Trade Center the rst tall building known to have
collapsed primarily due to uncontrolled res,[8] and the
only steel skyscraper in the world to have collapsed due
to re.[9]

Construction of the new 7 World Trade Center began in


2002 and was completed in 2006. The building is 52
stories tall (plus one underground oor), making it the
28th-tallest in New York.[2][10] It is built on a smaller
footprint than the original, allowing Greenwich Street to
be restored from Tribeca through the World Trade Center site and south to Battery Park. The new building is
bounded by Greenwich, Vesey, Washington, and Barclay
streets. A small park across Greenwich Street occupies
space that was part of the original buildings footprint.
The current buildings design emphasizes safety, with a
reinforced concrete core, wider stairways, and thicker
reproong of steel columns. It also incorporates nu- The original 7 World Trade Center from the WTC

underground bombing of the World Trade Center.

The original 7 World Trade Center was a 47-story building, designed by Emery Roth & Sons, with a red granite
facade. The building was 610 feet (190 m) tall, with a
trapezoidal footprint that was 330 ft (100 m) long and
140 ft (43 m) wide.[12][13] Tishman Realty & Construction managed construction of the building, which began
in 1983.[12] In May 1987, the building opened, becoming
the seventh structure of the World Trade Center.[14]
The building was constructed above a Con Edison
substation that had been on the site since 1967.[15] The
substation had a caisson foundation designed to carry
the weight of a future building of 25 stories containing 600,000 sq ft (56,000 m2 ).[16] The nal design for 7
World Trade Center was for a much larger building than
originally planned when the substation was built.[17] The
structural design of 7 World Trade Center therefore included a system of gravity column transfer trusses and
girders, located between oors 5 and 7, to transfer loads
to the smaller foundation.[7] Existing caissons installed
in 1967 were used, along with new ones, to accommodate the building. The 5th oor functioned as a structural
diaphragm, providing lateral stability and distribution of
loads between the new and old caissons. Above the 7th
oor, the buildings structure was a typical tube-frame design, with columns in the core and on the perimeter, and
lateral loads resisted by perimeter moment frames.[16]

Salomon Smith Barney, and other tenants.[6] In order
to supply the generators, 24,000 gallons (91,000 L) of
diesel fuel were stored below ground level.[18] Diesel fuel
distribution components were located at ground level,
up to the ninth oor.[19] After the World Trade Center
bombings of February 26, 1993, New York City mayor
Rudy Giuliani decided to situate the emergency command center and associated fuel tanks at 7 World Trade
Center. Although this decision was criticized in light
of the events of 9/11, the fuel in the building is today
not believed to have contributed to the collapse of the
building.[20][21][22][23][24][25][26] The roof of the building
included a small west penthouse and a larger east mechanical penthouse.[15]
Each oor had 47,000 sq ft (4,400 m2 ) of rentable oce
space which made the buildings oor plans considerably
larger than most oce buildings in the City.[27] In all, 7
World Trade Center had 1,868,000 sq ft (173,500 m2 )
of oce space.[6] Two pedestrian bridges connected the
main World Trade Center complex, across Vesey Street,
to the third oor of 7 World Trade Center. The lobby of
7 World Trade Center had three murals by artist Al Held:
The Third Circle, Pan North XII, and Vorces VII.[28][29]

A shipping and receiving ramp, which served the entire


World Trade Center complex, occupied the eastern quarter of the 7 World Trade Center footprint. The building was open below the 3rd oor, providing space for
truck clearance on the shipping ramp.[16] The spray-on
reproong for structural steel elements was gypsumbased Monokote which had a two-hour re rating for steel
beams, girders and trusses, and a three-hour rating for
columns.[6]
Mechanical equipment was installed on oors four
through seven, including 12 transformers on the 5th oor.

In June 1986, before construction was completed, Silverstein signed Drexel Burnham Lambert as a tenant to lease
the entire 7 World Trade Center building for $3 billion
over a term of 30 years.[30] In December 1986, after the
Boesky insider-trading scandal, Drexel Burnham Lambert canceled the lease, leaving Silverstein to nd other
tenants.[31] Spicer & Oppenheim agreed to lease 14 percent of the space, but for more than a year, as Black Monday and other factors adversely aected the Lower Manhattan real estate market, Silverstein was unable to nd

tenants for the remaining space. By April 1988, Silverstein had lowered the rent and made other concessions.[32]
In November 1988, Salomon Brothers withdrew from
plans to build a large new complex at Columbus Circle
in Midtown and agreed to a 20-year lease for the top 19
oors of 7 World Trade Center.[33] The building was extensively renovated in 1989 to accommodate the needs of
Salomon Brothers. This led to the alternative naming of
the building as the Salomon Brothers building.[34] Most
of three existing oors were removed as tenants continued to occupy other oors, and more than 350 tons (U.S.)
of steel were added to construct three double-height trading oors. Nine diesel generators were installed on the
5th oor as part of a backup power station. Essentially,
Salomon is constructing a building within a building
and its an occupied building, which complicates the situation, said a district manager of Silverstein Properties.
The unusual task was possible, said Larry Silverstein, because it was designed to allow for entire portions of oors
to be removed without aecting the buildings structural
integrity, on the assumption that someone might need
double-height oors.[34]
7 World Trade Center on re after the collapse of the Twin TowAt the time of the September 11, 2001, attacks,
Salomon Smith Barney was by far the largest tenant
in 7 World Trade Center, occupying 1,202,900 sq ft
(111,750 m2 ) (64 percent of the building) which included oors 2845.[6][35] Other major tenants included
ITT Hartford Insurance Group (122,590 sq ft/11,400
m), American Express Bank International (106,117 sq
ft/9,900 m), Standard Chartered Bank (111,398 sq
ft/10,350 m), and the Securities and Exchange Commission (106,117 sq ft/9,850 m).[35] Smaller tenants
included the Internal Revenue Service Regional Council (90,430 sq ft/8,400 m) and the United States Secret Service (85,343 sq ft/7,900 m).[35] The smallest
tenants included the New York City Oce of Emergency Management,[36] National Association of Insurance Commissioners, Federal Home Loan Bank, First
State Management Group Inc., Provident Financial Management, and the Immigration and Naturalization Service.[35] The Department of Defense (DOD) and Central
Intelligence Agency (CIA) shared the 25th oor with the
IRS.[6] Floors 4647 were mechanical oors, as were the
bottom six oors and part of the seventh oor.[6][37]

1.3.1

Collapse

As the North Tower collapsed on September 11, 2001,


heavy debris hit 7 World Trade Center, damaging the
south face of the building[38] and starting res that continued to burn throughout the afternoon.[7] The collapse also

ers on 9/11

caused damage to the southwest corner between Floors 7


and 17 and on the south face between Floor 44 and the
roof; other possible structural damage included a large
vertical gash near the center of the south face between
Floors 24 and 41.[7] The building was equipped with a
sprinkler system, but had many single-point vulnerabilities for failure: the sprinkler system required manual initiation of the electrical re pumps, rather than being a
fully automatic system; the oor-level controls had a single connection to the sprinkler water riser; and the sprinkler system required some power for the re pump to deliver water. Also, water pressure was low, with little or
no water to feed sprinklers.[39][40]
After the North Tower collapsed, some reghters entered 7 World Trade Center to search the building. They
attempted to extinguish small pockets of re, but low water pressure hindered their eorts.[41] Over the course of
the day, res burned out of control on several oors of 7
World Trade Center; the ames visible on the east side
of the building.[42][43] During the afternoon, re was also
seen on oors 610, 1314, 1922, and 2930.[38] In particular, the res on oors 7 through 9 and 11 through 13
continued to burn out of control during the afternoon.[8]
At approximately 2:00 pm, reghters noticed a bulge
in the southwest corner of 7 World Trade Center between the 10th and 13th oors, a sign that the building was unstable and might collapse.[44] During the afternoon, reghters also heard creaking sounds coming
from the building.[45] Around 3:30 pm, FDNY Chief
Daniel A. Nigro decided to halt rescue operations, surface removal, and searches along the surface of the debris near 7 World Trade Center and evacuate the area
due to concerns for the safety of personnel.[46] According

to FEMA, the building started to collapse at 5:20:33 pm


EDT when the east mechanical penthouse started crumbling, but diering times are given as to what time the
building completely collapsedat 5:21:10 pm EDT according to FEMA, and at 5:20:52 pm EDT according to
NIST.[6][7][47] There were no casualties associated with
the collapse.
1.3.2

Reports

Few photos and video clips exist that show the damage sustained
to the south face of 7 World Trade Center on 9/11. An ABC News
helicopter captured footage of the south face of 7 World Trade
Center, including a glimpse of a gash, extending approximately
10 stories.

preliminary report about 7 World Trade Center in June


2004, and thereafter released occasional updates on the
investigation.[38] According to NIST, the investigation of
7 World Trade Center was delayed for a number of reasons, including that NIST sta who had been working on
7 World Trade Center were assigned full-time from June
2004 to September 2005 to work on the investigation of
the collapse of the Twin Towers.[50] In June 2007, Shyam
Sunder explained, We are proceeding as quickly as possible while rigorously testing and evaluating a wide range
of scenarios to reach the most denitive conclusion possible. The 7 WTC investigation is in some respects just as
challenging, if not more so, than the study of the towers.
However, the current study does benet greatly from the
signicant technological advances achieved and lessons
learned from our work on the towers.[51]

In May 2002, the Federal Emergency Management


Agency (FEMA) issued a report on the collapse based
on a preliminary investigation conducted jointly with the
Structural Engineering Institute of the American Society
of Civil Engineers under leadership of Dr. W. Gene Corley, P.E. FEMA made preliminary ndings that the collapse was not primarily caused by actual impact damage

2 New building

The new 7 World Trade Center has 52 stories and is 741 ft


(226 m) tall.[60][61] The building has 42 oors of leasable
space, starting at the 11th oor, and a total of 1,700,000
sq ft (160,000 m2 ) of oce space.[62] The rst ten oors

Design

2.2 Construction

David Childs of Skidmore, Owings and Merrill worked


in conjunction with glass artist and designer James Carpenter to create a design that uses ultra-clear, low-iron
glass to provide reectivity and light, with stainless-steel
spandrels behind the glass to help reect sunlight.[64]
Stainless steel used in the building faade is molybdenumcontaining Type 316, which provides improved resistance
to corrosion.[65] To enclose the power substation and improve its aesthetics, the base of the building has a curtain
wall with stainless steel louvers that provide ventilation
for the machinery.[66] During the day, the curtain wall reects light, while at night it is illuminated with blue LED
lights.[67] The curtain wall around the lobby uses heavily
laminated, heat-strengthened glass that meets high standards for blast resistance.[68] At night, a large cube of light
above the lobby also emanates blue light, while during
the day it provides white light to the lobby, and at dusk it
transitions to violet and back to blue.[69] Inside the main
lobby, artist Jenny Holzer created a large light installation
with glowing text moving across wide plastic panels.[64]
The entire wall, which is 65 ft (20 m) wide and 14 ft
(4.3 m) tall, changes color according to the time of day.
Holzer worked with Klara Silverstein, the wife of Larry
Silverstein, to select poetry for the art installation. The
wall is structurally fortied as a security measure.[70]
The building is being promoted as the safest skyscraper
in the U.S.[71] According to Silverstein Properties, the 7 World Trade Center from street level
owner of the building, it will incorporate a host of
life-safety enhancements that will become the prototype
for new high-rise construction.[72] The building has 2ft (60 cm)-thick reinforced-concrete and reproofed elevator and stairway access shafts. The original building
used only drywall to line these shafts.[73] The stairways
are wider than in the original building to permit faster
egress.[73]
7 World Trade Center is equipped with Otis destination
elevators.[74] After pressing a destination oor number on
a lobby keypad, passengers are grouped and directed to
specic elevators that will stop at the selected oor (there
are no buttons to press inside the elevators). This system
is designed to reduce elevator waiting and travel times.
The elevator system is integrated with the lobby turnstile
and card reader system that identies the oor on which
a person works as he or she enters and can automatically
call the elevator for that oor.[75]
Nearly 30 percent of structural steel used in the building
consists of recycled steel.[76] Rainwater is collected and
used for irrigation of the park and to cool the building.[64]
Along with other sustainable design features, the building
is designed to allow in plenty of natural light, power is
metered to tenants to encourage them to conserve energy,
the heating steam is reused to generate some power for the
building, and recycled materials are used for insulation

and interior materials.[77][78]

7
Construction of the new 7 World Trade Center began
on May 7, 2002, with the installation of a fence around
the construction site.[1] Tishman Construction Corporation of New York began work at the new 7 World Trade
Center in 2002, soon after the site was cleared of debris.
Restoring the Con Ed electrical substation was an urgent
priority to meet power demands of Lower Manhattan.[63]
Because 7 World Trade Center is separate from the main
16-acre (6.5 ha) World Trade Center site, Larry Silverstein required approval from only the Port Authority,
and rebuilding was able to proceed quickly.[79] Building
Seven was not included in the original World Trade Center master plan by Daniel Libeskind, but was designed
by Skidmore, Owings & Merrill under the leadership of
David Childs, who largely redesigned One World Trade
Center.
Once construction of the power substation was complete
in October 2003, work proceeded on building the oce
tower. An unusual approach was used in constructing
the building; erecting the steel frame before adding the
concrete core. This approach allowed the construction
schedule to be shortened by a few months.[80] Construction was completed in 2006 at a cost of $700 million.[64]
Though Silverstein received $861 million from insurance
on the old building, he owed more than $400 million on its
mortgage.[81] Costs to rebuild were covered by $475 million in Liberty Bonds, which provide tax-exempt nancing to help stimulate rebuilding in Lower Manhattan and
insurance money that remained after other expenses.[82]

2.3 Opening
The building was ocially opened at noon on May
23, 2006, with a free concert featuring Suzanne Vega,
Citizen Cope, Bill Ware Vibes, Brazilian Girls, Ollabelle,
Pharaohs Daughter, Ronan Tynan (of the Irish Tenors),
and special guest Lou Reed.[85] Prior to opening, in
March 2006, the new 7 World Trade Center frontage and
lobby were used in scenes for the movie Perfect Stranger
with Halle Berry and Bruce Willis.[86]
Since the building opened, several unleased upper oors
have been used for events such as charity lunches, fashion
shows, and black-tie galas. Silverstein Properties allowed
space in the new building to be used for these events
as a means to draw people to see the building.[87] From
