2 World Trade Center (also known as 200 Greenwich Street) is a planned skyscraper as part of the planned rebuilding of the new World Trade Center in Lower Manhattan. It will replace the original 2 World Trade Center, which was built in 1972 and destroyed during the September 11 attacks in 2001. The new building will stand on the place where the original 5 World Trade Center was. As of 2013, the building rose 32 feet (9.8 m) up into the air. In 2013, construction was halted as tenants had not been found yet.

In February 2026, American Express announced it would develop and occupy the tower. On July 9, 2026, a groundbreaking ceremony was hosted for the tower.
