Unannounced Visitors. If someone arrives at the Lobby Desk and has not received prior notification from your firm, the Visitors’ Desk will then call the person(s) designated by you to confirm that the visitor does in fact have an appointment to see someone in your firm. Once that confirmation is made, the visitor will receive a visitor’s pass. The Lobby Desk in 7 World Trade Center is staffed 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. PLEASE NOTE THAT IN EITHER CASE, ANNOUNCED OR UNANNOUNCED VISITOR ACCESS WILL BE GRANTED ONLY BY AN AUTHORIZED REPRESENTATIVE OF YOUR FIRM. IN ADDITION, ALL VISITORS MUST POSSESS A VALID PHOTO ID. • Off Hour Access As you know, 7 World Trade Center’s hours are 7:00 AM to 6:00 PM, Monday through Friday. If you are having guests visit your office after 6:00 PM on weeknights or any time on Saturday, Sunday or holidays, the guest/visitor must be escorted by someone from your company with a valid Photo ID card. • VIP/Concierge Procedures Special handling for certain visitors to your firm during business hours can be accomplished by sending a request, on your letterhead, to the Property Management Office requesting VIP treatment. This request must be from an individual on the Authorizing Signature Card for your firm.
Unannounced Visitors. Evidence was given on behalf of the Claimants that each regularly has unannounced visitors (albeit with implied permission to visit). Without the attendance of a gatekeeper or knowledge of the current access code, they would be prevented from gaining ready vehicular access via the third entrance if the proposed barrier were down. Xx Xxxxxxx freely admitted that, given a code operated electronic barrier, there was no solution to dealing with such visitors other than telephoning (or emailing) the relevant code to such visitors in advance of their arrival. That is not a solution in relation to visitors who have no knowledge of the code or even of the need for a code to gain access and who give no advance notice of their visit.
