During the last days of 2014, the Jewish Business News published a recap of the top ten biggest real estate stories for the year. The rankings were based on a culmination of factors, which of course included the property’s sales price, but the primary determinant was the overall significance of the story.
1- The Durst Organization’s One World Trade Center
At the top of this list is the Durst Organization’s new famed One World Trade Center tower; with 104 floors, the building stands 1,776 feet tall.
The Twin Towers’ replacement finally opened for business 13 years after the tragic 9/11 attacks. The media firm Conde Nast leased 25 floors in the building for $1.3 billon, and already moved in 170 of their employees at the beginning of November. The company plans to have a staff of 3,400 working there down the line.
