4 WTC
Conceptualized on the drawing board of Japanese architect Fumihiko Maki, the skyscraper at Four World Trade Center is set to be the fourth highest component of the trade center complex, towering at a height of 297 meters (974 feet). The body overseeing the complex's construction, the Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, commended Maki's work on account of its "quiet, yet gracious presence in the area."

Environmental awareness and preservation are important criteria for the building's construction: The skyscraper is set to meet a high environmental standard and therefore receive a gold medal in Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design certification.
Digital imaging of the office lobby from the inside: Offices, restaurants and shops will have plenty of space in the new Four World Trade Center -- floor space will total 167,000 cubic meters (5,897,549 cubic feet).
Shopping corridors and offices are also planned for the Four World Trade Center building. The Port Authority of New York & New Jersey, which used to be located in one of the fallen twin towers, will have its new headquarters here.
