Prysmian SpA (PRY.MI), having just clinched the largest cable contract ever last week, said Thursday it will also build the elevator cables for the new World Trade Center in New York.

Draka Elevator, a unit Prysmian acquired with its purchase of Dutch rival Draka, will supply the hoistway cables and equipment for the more than 100 elevators due to be installed in the buildings now going up in lower Manhattan.

Prysmian didn't say how much the deal was worth.

Last week, it announced a EUR800 million contract to build, with Siemens AG (SIE.XE), a high-voltage direct current interconnector between Scotland and England.
