Besides Ground Zero, there is more to the Financial Center than meets the eye!
The World Financial Center was designed and created by Cesar Pelli and it comprises 4 postmodern buildings. The complex is located face to face to Ground Zero, the World Trade Center’s site, in Battery Park City. The construction of the WFC (World Financial Center) was finished in 1988. The center overlooks Hudson River. The landfill on which the Battery Park City was constructed also houses this huge complex. The landfill was in fact the dirt that was extracted from the World Trade Center’s site. That place was cleared so as to enable the construction of the 2 towers.
