Episode 3: The Tenants: “To Leaders with Vision, Your Office is Ready” Mary Ann Tighe, CEO of CBRE’s New York Tri-State Region

Top of the World- Lessons from Rebuilding the World Trade Center

Over 15 million square feet of New York’s newest office space were destroyed on 9/11, forcing a mass exodus of office tenants from Downtown to other parts of the city. Mary Ann Tighe talks about what it took to convince companies to return to the new World Trade Center, and how the area became the media, communications and technology capital of New York, home to Condé Nast, Spotify and Uber, as well as luxury brands including Moet Hennessy and Diageo. She discusses the future of office space after more than a year of working remotely, and what the recovery from the pandemic means for the World Trade Center, Downtown Manhattan and cities across America.
