One World Trade Center Ameriprise Financial will take nearly 38,000 square feet of office space at One World Trade Center next year.

NEW YORK CITY—A second big financial services tenant has come to One World Trade Center in nine months.

Ameriprise Financial has signed a 37,704-square-foot lease to take the 78th floor of the iconic property. The Downtown property—owned jointly by The Durst Organization and The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey—is now 69% leased.

Ameriprise Financial joins Moody’s, which occupies 75,312 square feet in the building, as a prominent financial services firm to lease space at One World Trade Center. Headquartered in Minneapolis, Ameriprise Financial will move its New York-based executive office space from its current location of 7 World Trade Center to One World Trade Center during the second quarter of 2017.

The Durst Organization was represented in-house on the Ameriprise Financial transaction by Eric Engelhardt, VP of leasing at One World Trade Center, along with Karen Kuznick, and by a Cushman & Wakefield team led by Tara Stacom that includes Justin Royce, Barry Zeller, Connor Daugstrup and Peter Trivelas. Ameriprise was represented by Josh Kuriloff, Drew Braver, Frank Cento and the Cushman & Wakefield global occupier services team.

“Adding a company like Ameriprise, with a 120-year history and steadfast commitment to serving clients’ financial needs, to our tenant roster speaks to the compelling nature of One World Center and its place in Lower Manhattan’s ongoing importance as a center for business and culture,” says Engelhardt. “One World Trade Center continues to attract a diversity of space users, with additional momentum building among financial services firms.”

Adds Cushman executive vice chairman Stacom, “Ameriprise Financial is a tremendous addition to One World Trade Center, with an address befitting its stature in the financial community.”
