HSBC Has Mega-Lease Out at Silverstein's 7 World Trade

One of the 7 World Trade Center floors HSBC plans to lease.
HSBC Bank is poised to become Larry Silverstein's newest tenant at 7 World Trade Center, with a lease pending on the last big block of space in the 52-story, 741-foot, two-year-old skyscraper on the edge of Ground Zero.
The banking giant has a lease out on 280,000 square feet of space comprising the top seven floors of the building, according to a knowledgeable source. While the lease has yet to be signed, insiders believe it's nearly a done deal. (We guess that means no more penthouse parties for the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issue.)
