MERRILL BEING WOOED
CALLING IT A TOSSUP BETWEEN SILVERSTEIN AND BROOKFIELD
Merrill's investment bankers have settled on three possibilities, sources said. They include World Trade Center Tower 3, also known as 175 Greenwich St., being developed by Silverstein Properties; a new tower by Vornado Realty Trust to replace the current Hotel Pennsylvania; or renewing with Brookfield Properties in Merrill's current WFC location in Battery Park City coupled with a new trading pod.

Just read from a WSJ article that one option from Silverstein was for a tower 3 with "several more floors" and about 14 % more space. For that to happen, they would have to throw the site plan right out the window. But the city/state seems intent on keeping Merrill Downtown, so anything is possible.
