When shall they be starting construction of the Blast walls ?

^^^They probably won't begin that until the exterior steel is higher up. so probably still a ways away

If that final setback on the backside of Goldman Sachs is turned into a terrace, it's going to provide some killer views of the WTC construction. That's a painfully obvious hint! hint! to all of you ambitious NY photographers out there...

Thanks for the tip! I'm from NJ but I was actually up in the city taking photos. I was all over. I wanted to post some of them on here but I don't know how to.

I doubt it. They don't even want you taking photos of the Goldman while it's under construction! Security will be very heavy.

Does anybody know what the current height of One World Trade Center?

I wouldn't assume it would be open to the public, of course. But for ambitious photogs who know somebody and can sweet talk their way up there, I have at least one beer waiting for them next time I'm in NYC...

One World Trade Center still remains at 105 feet when measured from the steel beams atop the South Core. Everything else is still below street level except the North Core which is at street level and working its way up there.

Well, sooner rather than later, that figure will have to be multiplied by 13.

Not accurate. It's been higher than that for a while now. Search a few pages back.

Actually it hasn't risen since February. I check Earth Cam everyday and there hasn't been any steel added to the South Core for a while now. The crane jump doesn't necessarily count as a height increase. Also the wtc progress site would have reported on a height increase. On Lower Manhattan info it says 140 feet but that is not accurate.
