VIPs cut the ribbon Monday on One Vanderbilt, the second-tallest office building in NYC. It rises 1401 feet, towering above iconic Midtown neighbors the Chrysler and MetLife buildings, and Grand Central Terminal.

"It's a reminder of the strength of New York City, it's a reminder of our resiliency, said Mayor Bill de Blasio at the ribbon cutting.

"Whether it is the pandemic or the economic crunch, this is a huge celebration right here on 42nd street and it really is the future of New York City in more ways that we can ever list," said Manhattan Borough President Gale A. Brewer

It would have been great to reproduce "Windows on the World" at the top of that building. The owner of "One World Trade Center," now the Port Authority, refused to consider a new Windows there.

Man it seems like just yesterday I was going into that modell's store that used to be there. I'd happily work in that building. Let me do some research and see who's leasing it maybe I can get hired by one of the companies
