The Woolworth Building, at 57 stories, is one of the oldest—and one of the most famous—skyscrapers in New York City. More than 95 years after its construction, it is still one of the fifty tallest buildings in the United States as well as one of the twenty tallest buildings in New York City. The building is a National Historic Landmark, having been listed in 1966.

The World Trade Center (WTC) was a complex of seven buildings in Lower Manhattan in New York City that were destroyed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. The site is currently being rebuilt with six new skyscrapers and a memorial to the casualties of the attacks. The original World Trade Center was designed by Minoru Yamasaki in the early 1960s using a tube-frame structural design for the twin 110-story towers.

Five World Trade Center, also referred to by its street address, 130 Liberty Street, is a proposed building to be located in New York City. It will be located on Site 5 of the new World Trade Center complex, but not exactly on the main 16-acre plot of land as the other four buildings. If constructed, it will be built on the site of the former Deutsche Bank Building, following its demolition.
