NEW YORK | One World Trade Center | 1,776' Pinnacle / 1,373' Roof | 108 FLOORS

That enclosure :(

Rendering by dbox (www.dbox.com)

[NewYorkDominates]

Why is the new rendering still with the spire?

Also,dbox are true kings at renderings.Truly is an amazing rendering.

[Otie]

It belongs to the package of stills dbox did for Discovery's documentary, so it's not a new rendering but a never seen before one.

Lower Manhattan is better than Midtown Manhattan due to the narrower streets,giving it a canyon-like feeling.

[PZelda]

Lower Manhattan is better than Midtown Manhattan due to the narrower streets,giving it a canyon-like feeling.

YES, EXACTLY! I loooooove to walk thru the Financial District for that reason alone. You just feel so tiny amongst all these tall buildings crowded together. Then once you get to the WTC, it opens up a little more (the way it is right now). I'm sure within several years' time, when all the buildings are up, it'll give everybody that tiny feeling. :)

I love to walk up the streets east of the WTC - away from all the subway stations near the WTC. You start to see 1/4/7 WTC, and it just hits you. WHAM! I couldn't stop looking up at 1 WTC my last visit... It's just soooooooo big :D

Park Avenue? As in 432 Park Avenue? That narrow pencil? It's a horrible design and by far one of the worst designs that i've seen.

I don't care what anyone says, Park Ave is still the greatest skyscraper canyon of all time.

Avenue of the Americas,XYZ buildings are bland but imposing.Most amazing canyon in my opinion.

Why aren't they working on the tower lately?

[10023]

Well how close are they to topping out? Are they trying to place the last beam on July 4th and need to slow roll it up to that point, or what?

[PhillyToNYC]

Well how close are they to topping out? Are they trying to place the last beam on July 4th and need to slow roll it up to that point, or what?

That's my guess, although I'm hoping that once it gets topped off they can move relatively fast with the concrete and curtain.

Amazing pictures. From this point on, this tower is going to dominate just like it does now.

Why aren't they working on the tower lately?

I've been wondering that too. My thought was maybe they went over to 4 wtc to finish it up, Or maybe the steel hasn't arrived yet.

Beekman looks badass in the first picture........1 WTC looks imposing between the Woolworth and Federal Court Building in the first picture. I only wish they would've gone taller, something like 2,000 ft would've been nice.

That's the Municipal Building. The Marshall Courthouse is a couple of blocks north of it.

funny, but even if i really love the shape of Freedom tower, for me the twin towers looked more impressive...

But in one hand it's normal:
first, there were TWO twin towers: it looked more massive as the two buildings were very close to each other.
Then, many buildings of south manhattan were not yet built in 2001, like the beekman tower, or the WFC... the twin towers dominated a skyline more reduced than now.
And finally, because of their shape, each twin tower's volume was 1.5 times bigger than Freedom tower...

What about your minds ? :)

At least, everybody in NY seems to love the new design, whereas the twin towers never managed to seduce ...

The WFC was built in the 80s, dude.

Also, this new WTC will dominate much more than the twin towers did. Keep in mind there are still two massive supertalls to squeeze in there.

But it's understandable that people can't really visualize it; a 1000+ ft. wall of giant skyscrapers is not exactly common in the world.

New steel soon? Cranes are jumped.

[patrick989]

Very nice. The crane gives you some idea what it will look like with the antenna.

I just can't imagine the final antenna is going to look uglier and more skeletal than the original north tower antenna. Hopefully they'd clad it with something, at least. I don't care if it doesn't count as a spire, just make it look a little nicer.

[NewYorkDominates]

What if they meant the "4th of July top-out" as the 105th floor and not the parapet,because it sure is starting to seem as a parapet top-out wouldn't be possible in 6 days.

[CarlosV]

cranes are higher and higher... :)

my friend who works at the site tells me that the last beam will go up on July 3rd (not the 4th) and the rest of smaller beams in the coming months.....there!

(bad thing is i will be away on vacation, so i won't be able to photograph it... :( )

one thing still disturbs me:

why are they always saying that freedom tower has 104 floors ??

that's completely false, the tower has actually only around 76 floors, but no more... :sly:

Did they "invented" the 25 ghost floors just in order to be proud to say the tower has more than 100 floors ?

for example they say that the cubic base is 20 floors high...
NO, there are actually 6 floors !!

Moreover you pass directly from floor 93 to floor 100 ...
WTF ??

i really don't understand, someone could explain me please ?

It's been repeated many times; the 104 number is the amound of theoretical floors and average building of that height could have.
I think. Anyway, I fixed your post aswell.
