No. Apparently you missed the part where I gave out the exact elevations.

I always thought that was a lie because I thought that people would look at the towers from a perspective that made one seem taller then the other because of the layout of the two towers. they weren't directly side by side. like this photo...

View from 11 floors up, on a hill, in Brooklyn, which will hopefully minimize parallax error.

Working on a time lapse film from this viewpoint hence the lack of photos lately. Should be done in a year or two.

Party time indeed
In that case

Zensteeldude · #**13052** Posted **Apr 8, 2011, 2:10 AM**

WOW, great pics !

Curb your enthusiasum. T1 even with the next lift will be 2 inches shorter than tower 7. (I added the 4 feet for the splice.)

Or, with the splice plates with there lifting eyes T1 will be about 18 inches taller.

Awesome! You can also see the Barclays Center going up in Brooklyn in the bottom right corner.. Soon to be the home to the Brooklyn Nets.

Nice pics guys.
Has made a lot of progress since I seen it in May.
Will make another trip to New York City when the tower is complete.

Nice to see that the 1WTC is technically taller than the 7WTC.

NYCLuver · #**13059** Posted **Apr 8, 2011, 5:22 PM**

It's nice to see 1WTC finally reaching that milestone of surpassing 7WTC... or just about anyway. I'm excited to see it finally bust through the plateau and make people begin to notice it around the city from all over! Should be an exciting summer and fall!

Oh and yes, I have been lazy lately so no new pictures from me at the moment. I hope to get some either this weekend or next week for sure. Sorry!

Lecom · #**13060** Posted **Apr 8, 2011, 5:27 PM**

So now 1WTC is once again the tallest building at the Worlsd Trade Center site. It took us almost exactly ten years, but finally here we are.
