2015 Year in Review - Daniel Montroy

What was your most notable project, deal, transaction or professional achievement in 2015? Our most significant architectural project of 2015 was One World Observatory at the top of One WTC in Manhattan. The 90,000 s/f entertainment, educational, and restaurant destination, located 1,250 feet above New York City’s streets, is on track to hosting nearly 4 million guests annually. It was a very complex, but also very satisfying project that is by now the most popular tourist attraction in the city. The Observatory has received media acclaim and numerous design awards both in the U.S. and overseas. This project followed our work on other landmark rooftop destinations, such as the renovation of the Rainbow Room at Rockefeller Center.
