Office building in Manhattan, New York
One North End Avenue , also known as the New York Mercantile Exchange Building , is an office building and the only non-tower financial building in Brookfield Place (World Financial Center) in Lower Manhattan , New York City. It is located on the coast of Battery Park City and the Hudson River and in front of 250 Vesey Street .[1] It serves as the headquarters and trading facility of the New York Mercantile Exchange .[2]
One North End Avenue immediately after the collapse of the World Trade Center
The New York Mercantile Exchange relocated from 4 World Trade Center to One North End Avenue in 1997,[3] after the directors of the exchange had considered moving to New Jersey for several years.[4] Following the September 11 attacks in 2001, the building suffered minor damage.[5] After 9/11, four American flags were affixed to the top corners of the building.
In 2013 Brookfield Properties purchased the building for US$200 million[6] and merged it with the rest of the complex.[7]
