News Feature Pitch
As, we are close to the 15th Anniversary of September 11, just recently the new World Trade Center Hub opened, last year Brookfield place as well. They have opened major brand stores like Cole Hann, Apple, Forever 21, Gucci and etc, that are inside the Hub and brookfield. Businesses are booming again in that section lower Manhattan.
The local angle is how do long time businesses owners and residents feel about the revival of that section of lower Manhattan. Does it affect the small businesses that have been there for many years?
I will interview residents, local businesses owners, who have lived or were there before 9/11, and try to talk to a Westfield and Brookfield rep.
