Windows on the World May Return to NYC

Filed under: Dining, Wine


A couple of weeks ago it was announced that New York City's Freedom Tower may be welcoming back Windows on the World, or at least a similar panoramic restaurant, in the 100th and 101st floors of the new building. Before the World Trade Center towers were destroyed in 2001, Windows on the World was the top-grossing restaurant in the U.S. with an annual revenue of $37 million. The 34,000 square foot restaurant is set to open in 2013 (only five years away) and hopefully it can offer some of the same fantastic atmosphere and culinary options the previous restaurant did -- and who can forget the wine. It certainly holds a nostalgic place in many New Yorkers' hearts.
