Silverstein Properties Company Description
September 11 staggered a nation, but Silverstein Properties stands steady in its plans to rebuild the landmark property that fell in the terrorist attacks. The major New York City landlord -- with more than 7 million sq. ft. of office and residential space in Manhattan - intends to redevelop all of the commercial space from the World Trade Center. One building, Seven World Trade Center is already open. The centerpiece of the planned project, Freedom Tower, is to be open by 2011. The family-owned company, controlled by Larry Silverstein, won a 99-year lease to the World Trade Center's office space from The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey in summer 2001, just weeks before the towers' destruction.
