I'm surprised they haven't jumped the tower crane yet; the new perimeter columns are right up to its level. Obviously they will need to do this very soon!

It is! All the new towers lobbies will be public considering they have access to all retail and transportation connections:)

BStyles

Apr 20, 2012, 8:36 AM

I believe the lobby portions of the towers are for tenants(since the retail is on the Church Street side of the towers and not the Greenwich Street side). Still shouldn't be too much of a hassle to stand inside the lobby however, since it is done at 7WTC.

Hahaha no, the fact that having a really tal mast standing there alone with no steel protecting it scares me, I know it's pretty well attached and secured to the tower's structure, but still scares me. Diagram will be updated till the next jump, enough modifications for now.

Wikipedia only has two floors until this tower tops out, but your diagram indicates about 4 or 5, so how many and when does it top out?

Looking at all the diagrams and pics, it looks like 4WTC and 1WTC will be topped off at the same time, if they continue the construction at the current pace. I don't know if they are purposely trying to do that or not, but it would be great if they did. It would be so nostalgic; seeing 2 towers rise again at Ground Zero.

Anyways, I uploaded a new WTC animation,

It makes you wish that instead of 1WTC or 2WTC, we had a 4WTC with the heights of those towers. The setback section could really soar.

babybackribs2314

Apr 25, 2012, 5:48 AM

Repeats of 4WTC would be bland, as it already is (it's quite nice filler and intended as a stepping-stone anyways--although 1 WTC hardly steels the show given its own design...). The cladding is quite amazing, though.

Awesome shot Carlos, and that is a hydroplane. They can land and take off on water. It's rare to see one in New York. They are more common up north in Canada.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seaplane

No, that IS a seaplane or more specifically a floatplane, as it is on pontoons. A hydroplane is a type of racing boat, rather than an aircraft. (Sometimes they unintentionally do become airborne, usually with disastrous results).

One crane alone can't erect a tower. Since the crane accident a few weeks ago the tower's top-out date has fallen behind schedule. Its also a lot simpler to disassemble the jumping crane in the core, and other concrete work.

As long as the swing radius is within bounds, one crane can erect a tower. I have seen this on many occassions.

Damn man, that really captures the sheer scale of this building. It often gets overlooked because of its larger siblings, but if you put 4WTC here in Tampa, it would be nearly twice as tall as our tallest building.

EDIT: Also, is that the beginnings of the vehicle security center or Five World Trade Center?

Well, they sure didn't waste any time putting that new crane into action!

For that, and a lot of other reasons I continue to say that T4 will top out before T1. Unless I missed an earlier post, I think I was the first forum member to make that prediction (here in this thread) and it looks like that point of view is becoming more popular.

I don't see what can stop it now, T4 only has what, two jumps left? And the T1 upper levels are vastly more complicated, and bigger to boot.

ESB's spire looking like it's 100 feet behind Chase Plaza. (BOA's poking out behind Woolworth too)

How much left to go on 4WTC? Just by eyeballing it I'm guessing 80-90 feet...?

Yeah, I've been curious what floor is it at? It looks like the thing is ready to top off...

It's easy to forget what a monster this building is until you get close to it.

I just glanced at the Earthcam for 4 WTC, and it looks like there's just 3 more floors left until they hit the top of the westernmost part. Then we get to see how the easternmost side will look with glass on it... Theeeeen the Carlos Cam will finally be able to see 4 WTC with glass on it :D

Man, I can't believe how crazy close 4 WTC is to being done!! I'll be in NYC in 3 1/2 weeks... they're going to get pretty far in cladding at the rate they've been going for the last month. :)

Is it true that they added an additional 50 feet to this building recently? It's amazing -- the construction of 4WTC has been overlooked due to 1WTC, but this is such a beautiful structure.

it's been said 1000 times already on here but seriously, the glass on this building is ridiculous

Must be pushing 900 feet by now, and yes the glass is amazing I agree
