Condé Threatened to Walk From 1 WTC Deal Over Cafeteria Vent

The executives at Condé Nast love their cafeterias so much that they almost nixed the deal to move to 1 World Trade Center over it. According to The New York Post, the company demanded that its cafeteria have a special vent  – which cost about $1 million to install – or it wouldn’t rent the space from Port Authority.

Port Authority was annoyed because not only would it have to redo the system for just one company, the vent – at one story tall and 25 feet wide – was going to be quite the eyesore.
