It was not too long ago, that prospects for Lower Manhattan seemed so ominous that some predicted it would not survive as a financial center. Within day of the destruction of the World Trade Center, a number of companies with offices in Lower Manhattan were searching for space in midtown or outside the city.

From the Freedom Tower to Battery Park to the East River Waterfront, construction and redevelopment taking place over the coming years will help make Lower Manhattan one of the most beautiful, livable, and economically viable communities in the country. Get a glimpse of the area’s future through articles, slide shows, animations, and a one-of-a-kind Lower Manhattan 2010 Vision Video, all found in this section.

  1. An interesting site! Thank you. New York City continues to be the national nucleus for vibrant human experience. The enthusiasm associated with new construction throughout the city is a catalyst sure to spark imaginations of creative geniuses for years to come. However, there must be appreciation for past endeavors and environments as well as those of the present and future for true cultural perspective.
