You know, there should be a GIF of these images. Like every week or so to show progress. That would look cool.

Looks like the steel for the North core cage is on site.

Damn, this tower cannot go up quickly enough to fill that gaping hole in the skyline of what was. I was in the WTC 2 months before they collapsed so I think about this tradgedy everyday of my life and will forever.

Doesn't look that way from the cam.

Haven't been down to the site, but here's an overview from the cam a few minutes ago...and it does appear to have jumped some.

Oh yeah, she jumped.

Now the real tandem action can get underway.

Here's a question to the NY forumers in the know: does the City have to inspect the crane after a jump, or can they commence with work right away?

That's a good question. I was a bit uneasy about the south crane's jump into the steel cage, such a thin structure meant to hold up the world's most safest tower.

It doesn't look like they're wasting any time with the steel cage over the north core. I see the steel they delivered being put together right now.

An inspector must be present before they can begin, during and after the jump. He/she must "sign off" on it before it can go back into service.
