388 Greenwich Street, originally called the Shearson Lehman Plaza and more recently the Travelers Building, is an office skyscraper in the Tribeca neighborhood of Lower Manhattan in New York City. The building is located at Greenwich Street, with frontages on North Moore and West Streets. 388 Greenwich Street forms a complex with the neighboring 10-story 390 Greenwich Street near the Hudson River. Currently, the two buildings comprise the global headquarters of financial services corporation Citigroup. 388 Greenwich stands about ten blocks north of the World Trade Center site and is among TriBeCa's tallest. Like many other office buildings in Manhattan, 388 Greenwich Street contains a fitness center, full-service dining facilities, a medical center, a conference center, a day care center, and an outdoor park. The building is one of the few in New York with double-deck elevators. In the aftermath of the September 11 attacks, the building's courtyard was used as a triage center.[2][3]
