Ameriprise Financial renews lease for 37,704 s/f at One World Trade Center

Manhattan, NY The Durst Organization and The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey today announced that Ameriprise Financial, Inc. (Ameriprise) has renewed the company’s lease at One World Trade Center. The global financial services firm has had a corporate presence at One World Trade Center since 2016 and will retain the company’s current space of 37,704 s/f on the 78th floor for another decade. One World Trade Center is 97% leased.

“Ameriprise was one of the first tenants at One World Trade Center. Their recommitment to the building demonstrates One World Trade Center’s continued draw of financial services firms and the strength of the Lower Manhattan office market,” said Jody Durst, president of The Durst Organization.

“A decade ago, when One World Trade Center’s first tenants, including Ameriprise, were moving in, the neighborhood’s future was still an open question,” said Jolene Yeats, World Trade Center director at the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. “Now, 10 years later, Ameriprise’s renewal signals that the question has been decisively answered: the World Trade Center has established itself as one of the region’s most vibrant destinations for businesses, residents, and visitors alike. Few addresses anywhere can match the dynamic energy, stunning spaces, and convenient connectivity offered here.”

For more than 130 years, Ameriprise has been helping clients feel confident about their financial future. With investment advice, global asset management capabilities and insurance solutions, and a nationwide network of more than 10,000 financial advisors, Ameriprise serves the full range of individual and institutional investors’ financial needs.

Built by The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey and The Durst Organization in a public-private partnership, One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere.

One World Trade Center brings together convenience, amenities, and a neighborhood that inspires innovation, productivity, and success. The 25,000 s/f Well& by Durst amenity space on the 64th Floor Sky Lobby provides tenants with a space that invigorates, inspires, and fosters connections. Well& by Durst features freshly prepared seasonal meals, exclusive curated events, as well as state-of-the-art meeting, event, and lounge spaces. Tenants at One World Trade Center include Condé Nast Publications, Carta, Celonis, Stagwell, Scale AI, and Frier Levitt. The 3.1 million s/f building is certified LEED Gold.

The Durst Organization was represented in house by Eric Engelhardt, Karen Rose, and Sayo Kamara, and by Newmark’s David Falk, Peter Shimkin, Hal Stein, Nathan Kropp, and Paige Raisides. Josh Kurlioff, Drew Braver, Heather Thomas, and Nicole Estevez of Cushman & Wakefield represented Ameriprise.
