Hello.
I need any detailed map, plans or blueprints of the World Financial Center in New York.
I just finished making an accurate detailed 3D computer model of the World Trade Center, and now to make a accurate detailed 3d of the World Financial Center.

I need any detailed or accurate information, blueprint/plans/maps of the buildings. I am getting desperate for information, I have been searching all over the internet for quite some time.

The most information I found was on the leasing website, which gave floor heights, but that’s it.
Any help would be VERY much appreciated!

At the bottom is a few pictures of my World Trade Center model, to show what detail I am working at.
Thanks
- JC

Who is Gene Kaufman you ask?

He is a disgusting insect that has been infesting New York with his putrid crapitecture for too long. Someone needs to squash him like the roach that he is.

Forget Kaufman.

jc84144, about your original question...I know this is a crazy idea but if you are not successful in getting any information, may I suggest you go directly to the architectural firm that designed the WFC: Pelli (http://www.pcparch.com/flash.cfm).

Maybe if you show them an example of what you do and let them know what you're looking for, perhaps they'll provide you with the info.

I have emailed the Building manager, chief engineer, general manager and the vice president of the World Financial Center, and explained what I’m doing and showed them my WTC model so they knew what detail I would be modelling it.

I have thought about contacted the architect firm that designed the WFC, but I have assumed that as they don't own the building, they are not in a position to give out information about the building, specially on a building which could be a terrorist target, but I will send them an email today. Thanks.
