Those aerial shots are amazing. Partly because they got really lucky with the light (the clouds casting shadows around lower Manhattan, but not on), and partly because William Beaver House is almost entirely obscured. ;)

The reflections of light off so many of the new skyscrapers, especially when the new WTC is complete, will be amazing.

The aerial shots allowed us to realise how the view from pretty much every floor will be unobstrucked. And probalby never challenged by another building -even thought it's New-York. : we never know !!

Very Cool (Though that render didn't come out 'til 2008 or something).

Some buildings you can kind of get a sense of what the final product will be, and you can kind of envision it in your head as it nears completion, and yet I still can't fully wrap my head around this one and how it will finally turn out, really a great building for the location.

I don't know quite why, but this picture really spoke to me. It's amazing. This tower looks like its entire facade is made of canvas fabric, like a sail, and this is what happens on a windy day. What's more unbelievable is this head-on shot really shows me how much of an instant landmark this is. Just another one to add to New York's already brilliant roster. :cheers:

How did you got this shot? Is there a public room in 7WTC's upper levels?

you can go up if there are some events open to the public, and of course take some pics.

I know the flat side is much maligned on this forum (i think every one agrees the wavy sides are spectacular), but i actually like the flat side. I love the verticality of it, it's smooth straight lines with the slight set backs on it's edges. I can only imagine that in a shot straight up it must really soar.

Definitely one of the top buildings in North America.

I guess we're in for a prolonged period of waiting for the very top portion of the facade to be completed, while some of the inner mechanical work is completed?

That was pretty much the way it went with the BofA...

I have to say, sometimes the finished building looks hardly anything like the rendering, but in this case its hard to tell if what we're looking at is the actual photo! Amazing design.:cheers:

You can almost feel the presence of the old WTC on the skyline with this tower's height and location.

Probably would have been even more so, had Silverstein's 30 Park risen by now.

This is great. I love the juxtaposition to the Woolworth Building. This area has been stagnant for too long and it has broken free with a pop!

Is there a surprise crown that nobody knows about???

The Beekman Tower is a fantastic addition the the New York Skyline!

A little older, but shows a lot of details of the facade:

sure there are other choices as the burj khalifa but beekman has that special ingredient if you know what i mean. :) or i'm missing some gorgeous towers (already) completed this year?

Love it, see it from my apt windows, still convinced they (boorishly) value engineered the south facade and yet hoping the roof wasn't designed as such.

I suppose I'm waiting for a finalé which will never come. Never the less, I hope for something special at top if even only an undulating parapet.

on some of those pictures it almost looks like if the wind is blowing towards the middle wing, blowing the facade towards downtown with a stronger effect as it gets taller.
