In the spirit of Imhotep, the great Egyptian architect who built the first pyramid, S.O.M. has created another rooftop pyramid in New York. World Wide Plaza is a large multi-use office building with a glass glazed pyramid at the peak.

This project was developed over six months, working with the architects, to develop the right geometry. The System is Conservatek’s Omni*Hub 42′ X 42′ base, 36′ high HUB System. The 47-story building is located on 8th Avenue at 49th Street in Manhattan.
