One Liberty Plaza, International style skyscraper in Lower Manhattan, US

One Liberty Plaza rises 226 meters above ground with 54 floors featuring a facade of black steel and reflective glass panels.

The building replaced the Singer Building and City Investing Building, opening in 1973 during the first global oil crisis.

The structure represents a shift in corporate architecture, moving from ornate designs to minimalist forms that prioritize function over decoration.

The building contains 39 elevators and provides direct access to multiple subway lines through the Fulton Street station complex.

Following September 11, 2001, engineers confirmed the structural integrity of the building despite its location next to Ground Zero.
