World Trade Center tower boasts large-scale, bold art

In this Dec. 9, 2014 file photo, Britain's Prince William, Duke of Cambridge, left, and Kate, Duchess of Cambridge, walk in front of a mural by Jose Parla as the royal couple takes a tour of the lobby of new One World Trade Center following a visit to the nearby National September 11 Memorial and Museum, in New York. The building opened to great fanfare last month as the first tenants moved into the 104-story tower through the vast lobby dominated by Parla's monumental abstract mural. The color-splashed, 90-by-15-foot painting is among 13 public artworks by five artists selected or commissioned for the historic skyscraper.
