One World Trade Center, also known as the Freedom Tower, is a prominent skyscraper located in Lower Manhattan, New York City. Completed in 2013, it stands at a symbolic height of 1,776 feet, commemorating the year of American independence. Designed by architect David Childs of Skidmore, Owings & Merrill, the tower features a modern, glass façade that tapers as it rises, creating a striking presence on the skyline. One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere and serves as a powerful symbol of resilience and renewal, as it was built on the site of the original World Trade Center complex destroyed in the September 11, 2001 attacks.
