Office in the WTC
It was very interesting to see how the inside looking New York office buildings. What is there for the interiors and what types of windows. But to get inside is not so simple. Pass by invitation only someone who works there. Recently, thanks to Dmitry aka newyorkrealty I was able to go in the first new housing built the World Trade Center. It's about building called "7 World Trade Center." It was built in 2006 and has long been fully leased. There are offices of various companies, and one of the floors was cast into startups. There we go.
So in my view, should sit financial bigwigs :)

Developer and owner is a company Silverstein Properties, the same as building and other buildings of the World Trade Center. It is owned by billionaire Larry Silverstein. The building was built on the site of the previous WTC7, which collapsed on the September 11, 2001 there are a lot of different opinions and questions. Now I do not want to touch on this topic, as it is in the post a little bit about the other.
2. The view from the ground. Buildings 1 World Trade Center (left) and 7 World Trade Center (right).
3. Log.
4. It is in close proximity to the entrance to the station PATH, so there is always crowded and a large number of police officers.
5. Lobby. Entrance through the turnstiles. If you meet, there are no documents to display is not necessary.
6. Further waiting elevator button 46 floors and we have in place. A total of 52 floors of the building.
7. This office is different from the others in that it does not give up a single company, and set. You rent one, two or three rooms, but the benefits of using a full-fledged office.
8. If you do not know, so you could not tell. No no plates, and the rooms are not very different from each other.
9. In addition to the rooms there is a reception with his secretary (he was on the photo 6), several conference rooms, skype room (show below), two meeting rooms, a cafeteria and a copy of the room, where there are shared printers and copiers. If not his, it is possible to use them.
10. Rooms are mostly small. Here is for two people. But what kinds!
11. There are offices for one person, two, four, five (he pictured). Still there is angular with two rooms and a large bedroom. In the photo someone very nicely asleep :) I shot through the glass wall.
12. I am particularly interested in the price. How much is to sit in a room with such species? Reporting. Prices start at $ 1,900 per month (this is for a small room with no windows) and up to 20 000 (this is for high office of three rooms). A total of 60 start-floor office space.
13. Double room with a view is worth $ 4,500 per month (plus additional expenses such as telephone, internet and electricity). Take them not so much because of the species (they are quite quickly stale), but because of the prestige of the address.
14. Cafeteria. There are refrigerators with drinks, coffee machines, etc. All for free. There are tables and chairs (they are behind me).
15. If you need a meeting room for business meetings, it is necessary to rent for a fee. The one on the first photo is the most expensive and costs $ 200 per hour. There are smaller for 100 and 50. In the photo below skype room. Size of the room does not allow privacy for an important call, and then comes to the rescue this room. These two rooms. there is a tablet and phone. For the use of facilities and equipment to pay nothing.
16. Interior corridor, where hang the photo from the site. There is a classic drinking fountains and bathrooms are. In order to get to the toilet need to know the code.
17. The photo on the wall. Access to the office there 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, but on weekends, as well as in other large office buildings in Manhattan, here turn off the air conditioning system. Window, as you might guess, can not be opened.
18. The idea of the general office (one of the ideas) is that the owners of the building itself raise serious future tenants. Startups can become large companies that need a good office and they know where to go. I am confident that in economic terms it is also brings a profit. Yet it is the only opportunity for start-up companies rent an office in a prestigious location. Large room (as pictured) Contracts shall be for a term of 10 years and with the newcomers there will not even talk. As in the rest of that is due to the expensive real estate in New York, just having money does not solve anything. Still must be a corresponding reputation, financial history, etc. Interestingly, the rental office on the photo obviously costs money, but it generally does not get off. One large space with concrete floors, cluttered office furniture.
19. Now to the species. They immediately captivating and inaccessible to most New Yorkers (to say nothing about the tourists). Only when finished with the construction of the tower and there 1WTC open observation platform, people finally got the chance to look at New York City from this angle. In the meantime, in any way, unless you have friends / acquaintances who work in these offices.
20. The building without windows in the center of this 29-storey telecommunication center AT & T Long Lines Building, built in 1974.

It was planned 100-story and was supposed to be the highest in the world, but the Great Depression did not allow him to rise above 29 floors. The building is finished building only in 1950. Well, right you are and you know. If suddenly you forget, then remind you - this 77-story skyscraper Chrysler Building, built in 1930. He was the tallest building in the world from 1930 to 1931, has not yet built the Empire State Building. Even the most beautiful skyscraper in New York.
25. Let's look in the opposite direction. This view of the southern tip of Manhattan Island.
26. If you look down, you can see the fountains at the site of twins and the building of the museum complex 9/11. Picture taken on September 11, at the time when the memorial was opened only to relatives of the victims, so the fountains are almost no people. Left sticking skeleton under construction Hub World Trade Center authored by Santiago Calatrava.
27. Above him the rudiments of the 80-storey skyscraper 3 World Trade Center, which will be built no earlier than 2017. Above stands 74-storey glass building 4 World Trade Center, which is put into operation at the end of last year.
