Inaugurated in 2014, the One World Trade Center has become a symbol of resilience after the horror of 9/11. Commonly referred to as the "Freedom Tower," it is America's tallest building at 1,776 feet (541 meters) and an emblem of the US economic capital. From its conception, the tower had to testify to New York's durability -- looking to the future despite the tragedy -- according to one of its architects, Kenneth Lewis. (Photo by Ed JONES / AFP)

Nueva York. Es el rascacielos que reemplazó en el cielo neoyorquino a las Torres Gemelas, reducidas a cenizas. Inaugurado en el 2014, el One World Trade Center, el edificio más alto de Estados Unidos, de 541 metros, se convirtió en una torre emblemática de la capital económica del país, símbolo de resiliencia tras el horror de los atentados del 11 de setiembre.

Desde su origen fue concebida como un testimonio de la resiliencia de Nueva York, una visión hacia el futuro a pesar del desastre, afirma Kenneth Lewis, uno de los arquitectos del estudio SOM, que construye rascacielos en todo el mundo.
