200 West Street, completed in 2009, is a 228-meter tall postmodern skyscraper in Battery Park City, Manhattan, designed by Henry N. Cobb of Pei Cobb Freed & Partners in collaboration with Adamson Associates Architects. Serving as the global headquarters of Goldman Sachs, this 44-story office building rises between Vesey and Murray Streets and stands as the tallest structure within Battery Park City. Construction began in 2005 with significant government subsidies and was marked by several serious incidents before workers began occupying the completed building in late 2009. The project cost $2.1 billion and achieved LEED gold certification for its environmental performance.
