The Deutsche Bank Building (formerly Bankers Trust Plaza) was a 39-story office building located at 130 Liberty Street in Manhattan, New York City, adjacent to the World Trade Center site. The building was purchased by Deutsche Bank when it acquired Bankers Trust in 1998.

The building closed following the September 11 attacks in 2001, due to contamination that spread from the collapse of the South Tower.&nbsp;
