Perelman Performing Arts Center

The Perelman Performing Arts Center (PAC NYC) opened in September 2023 and brings theater, music, dance, and film to the World Trade Center campus and Lower Manhattan. PAC NYC is a 129,000-square-foot, cultural center with multiple performance spaces and a restaurant, public cafe and lounge, located at the intersection of Vesey, Fulton, and Greenwich Streets. 

The public plaza between PAC NYC and One World Trade Center will accommodate pop-up outdoor performances and seating for the campus.

Construction started in 2019 after the temporary WTC PATH Station entrance that occupied this location was closed, and the new WTC PATH Station in the Oculus opened.

PAC NYC is home to Marcus Samuelsson's contemporary American restaurant, Metropolis, that features a menu inspired by the rich culinary traditions of New York City and is open for brunch, lunch, dinner, and drinks.
