^ Great pics, NYguy! After seeing the construction thread was "closed," I freaked out for a second, then used my brain... It's DONE! :D

How much height does measuring from vesey add?

Love that concourse in NYGuy's pics #5 & 6!

There's still time for someone to submit their photos to the official competition (to win a scale model of the tower):

One WTC is a milestone and the overall site already looks amazing. I'll be making a progress video towards the end of the month for a recap of this year's progress as well as stepping into the future. :cheers:

My original picture :D
http://photos-b.ak.instagram.com/hph...52525207_n.jpg Thought it was an angle not captured often. No one's cool enough to take pics on the subway. ;) |
Beautiful pictures from everyone as usual! It's such a stunning building and I'm looking forward to seeing 3WTC and hopefully 2WTC join this skyscraper.

You're seeing the same photo repeat year after year. What's new in downtown?

The lighting really has a big effect... I'm constantly surprised at the vibrant diversity of shots. I suppose it's like complaining you're seeing the same photo of the Empire State Building year after year. :sly: |

Has anyone made note of the fact that Google Earth has finally updated their scan of the city?

Nice addition to the NY skyline, but I would have rather they rebuilt Yamasaki's twins.

^ People keep saying that, but there was no way they were rebuilding those Twins. Those towers were designed for a different time. Trying to put that much office space into one office tower for Manhattan these days would create a much different and taller design. Even if you designed the same buildings (110 floors), the height would be much greater, meaning they wouldn't be the same, so what's the point in that? http://www.motherjones.com/environme...ble-plan-sandy The Freedom Tower Was Supposed To Be the Greenest Building in America. So What Went Wrong? Under pressure to get a publishing giant into the iconic tower, the site's developers may have sacrificed a core part of its green plans. http://www.motherjones.com/files/ima...8011292947.jpg By James West Mon Dec. 8, 2014 Quote:

Not the greatest photo as it's digitally zoomed on my cell phone but I noticed something the other day:
http://i.imgur.com/LxkaRM6.png With the evaporation towers on the roof of 1 WTC, and a low dew point, the roof pumps out a cloud of steam, which is enough to at times envelop the communications rings and the base of the spire. I know it's a small point, but it did have an ominous similarity to the smoke pouring from the World Trade Centers on 9/11. The original towers didn't have evaporation towers on the roof of the buildings, opting instead to pipe the hot return water back underground to the chiller plant (to be diluted into the Hudson's cold water). I'm surprised no one raised any concerns over placing massive cooling towers on the roof. I think less than half of the buildings HVAC system was operating when I took this picture, as only Conde Nast's occupied floors would be really demanding climate control. Fully occupied, there might be a lot of winter steam billowing out up there. |
Some WTC from today...

The officials at the PANYNJ are kicking their asses at this very moment for not rebuilding what was there before. They've said so many times that they made the biggest mistake by selecting this master plan. Simple reason: billions of $ worth of cost overruns and delays. It's just a huge headache for them.

That photo kiosk sounds hella cool, I'd be all over it!

Several from earlier today from the top of the Grace building.

its not a recent photo. That was over a month ago.

This is probably a dumb question, but why is the building considered "completed" when there is still that part near the base of the tower that isn't finished?
