The concrete block structure is the temporary PATH vent. The permanent one is inside the tower and not yet finished.

It looks like it's coming from a level where fireproofing insulation is being applied.

It's most likely just smoke from welding. Spray on fireproofing makes a much bigger mess. Also, spray on fireproofing is NOT weather proof therefore it is highly unlikely that they are spraying it on now.

I thought it was the Subway box doing that.

Great find. The corner nodes are really starting to show some separation.

On another note, are the "floors" of the memorial pools supposed to get the same gray granite treatment as the walls?

Very, very cool pics canadate! I love seeing pics taken from the gate where you can really see the work going on inside the lobby on the north and east side, as well as pics of the west plaza and west side of the lobby, but hardly anyone takes pics from these locations anymore, so it's great to finally see a recent pic of what's taking place here.

Thanks a lot, glad you liked them. I usually go over to the west side so I'll make sure I'll continue to get a few shots from over there in with each update.
