250 Vesey Street, once known as Four World Financial Center, is one of the quartet of towers forming the Brookfield Place complex located in Battery Park City, neighboring the Financial District in Lower Manhattan. This 34-story office building, completed in 1986, was part of the original World Financial Center development and was created by the architectural firm Cesar Pelli & Associates.
In the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, the structure experienced damage to its roof but endured comparatively less destruction than the other towers in the vicinity. On October 23, 2001, senior executives from Merrill Lynch returned to occupy select floors, marking it as the first building within the complex to resume operations following the attacks.
The building adopted the name 250 Vesey Street in 2014 when the entire complex was rebranded as Brookfield Place. Today, it accommodates financial offices for Scotiabank and Jane Street Capital, as well as serving as the headquarters for the College Board. Previously, it was entirely leased by Merrill Lynch & Co..
