RKF Director Michael Worthman and Associate Brandon L. Singer represented the landlord, Cedar Management. The National September 11 Memorial & Museum was represented by Cushman & Wakefield's David Tricarico and Devon McBride.
The National September 11 Memorial & Museum is expected to take occupancy October 2009.
20 Vesey Street, located between Broadway and Church Street, offers the not-for-profit corporation a location steps from the World Trade Center site.
About the National September 11 Memorial & Museum:
The National September 11 Memorial & Museum is the not-for-profit corporation created to oversee the design, raise the funds, and program and operate the Memorial & Museum at the World Trade Center site. The Memorial & Museum will be located on eight of the 16 acres of the original site.
The Memorial will remember and honor the thousands of people who died in the horrific attacks of February 26, 1993, and September 11, 2001. The design, created by Michael Arad and Peter Walker, consists of two pools that reside in the footprints of the original Twin Towers, surrounded by a plaza of oak trees. The Arad/Walker design was selected from a design competition that included more than 5,000 entrants from 63 nations.
The Museum will display monumental artifacts associated with the events of September 11, while presenting intimate stories of loss, compassion, reckoning and recovery that are central to telling the story of September 11 and its aftermath. It will communicate key messages that embrace both the specificity and the universal implications of the events of 9/11; document the impact of those events on individual lives, as well as on local, national, and international communities; and explore the continuing significance of these events for our global community.
Donations can be made through and more information can be found at the Memorial & Museum’s website, www.national911memorial.org, or by calling 1-212-312-8800.
