On the bottom of 2M. The beams are gray. Spray-on fireproofing.

^ Just think of the few more years of breathtaking photos we have left to see as the tower climbs and nears its completion...

By looking at that last photo, once 1WTC surpasses 7WTC, it will really be a sight to see for those looking south from 7WTC over the sight to finally realize that it is no longer ground zero, but once again the WTC sight. Even though 1WTC will alone will add a lot of density fro 7WTC, all the views from 7WTC will be pretty much surrounded by density when all is said and done!

Breathtakingly huge. It actually looks a good deal larger than the renders I saw on wtc.com.

I must say looking at Morangelos photo of tower 1 v2 got me thinking what a difference a year could make. just a year ago from now the tower was barely above street level and now its above 400 feet with the new inner core steel for floors 35,36. probly by this time in 2011 it will be atleast double this height and it will be atleast 900 feet tall and being a true sky scrapper by then.

By this time next year it should be nearly topped out, not topped out. We are now in the construction of the regular office floors, the pace being quicker than what we saw with the lower levels of the tower.

Exactly what I stated in the previous post. The exact feet the tower would be doesn't matter, as it there is very little difference in height among the top floors.

Now picture TWO of them... the bases of the original WTC towers were about the same size as the FT's.

Just wait until the bases of towers 2 and 3 rise. This one is huge, those will appear more massive. Meanwhile, this one is sneaking up on the skyline...
