NU Online News Service, Sept. 14, 3:05 p.m. – Although Prudential Financial, Newark, N.J., does not have offices at the former World Trade Center, they do have locations in lower Manhattan: a sales office at 1 Liberty Plaza and a securities corporate office at the South Street Seaport.
All of the employees in those offices are presumed safe in connection with the Sept. 11 attacks on four U.S. passenger jets, the Pentagon and the Manhattan World Trade Center Complex, says spokeswoman Laurita Warner.
"We're unaware of any losses," she says. "We think we've been blessed."
At least part of the securities operation at the Seaport is expected to reopen Monday, along with the New York Stock Exchange, Warner says.
The condition of the 1 Liberty Plaza location is still unclear, she says.
