Condé Nast superstar editors Anna Wintour and Graydon Carter will be sharing their glamorous new 1 World Trade Center digs with US Army sandhogs.
The US Army Corp of Engineers, as well as the US Customs and Border Protection agency and the federal General Services Administration, will move into the iconic tower in 2015, according to a source briefed on the moves.
They will occupy 268,000 square feet of space, which the GSA leased last year from 1 WTC’s owners, the Port Authority and the Durst Organization.
The GSA is expected to announce the tenants later today. While the GSA lease, which got a big push from Sen. Chuck Schumer, is no secret, it wasn’t known until now exactly which governmental units would take the space.
Conde Nast is the largest tenant in the tower with more than 1.1 million square feet and China’s Beijing Vantone took 200,000 feet. The 3 million square-foot tower is just over half-leased.
