@NYGuy;

I bet it would make a killer view from the Brooklyn Bridge State Park when it's completed!

I still remember the originals going up when there was no GS, WFC or #7 around. I did like the look of those beasts, but I have to admit the new complex will look a lot more balanced.
And I always loved that Staten Island ferry view.

Dunno if anyone else has pointed this out yet, but at 933 feet tall, 1WTC has just passed its 2/3rds of its final height mark (which was 912 feet).

9/11 A Decade Later: Port Authority Head Touts Progress At WTC Site

Quote:
Ward gave NY1 a wide-ranging tour of the site this week, including going up into Downtown Manhattan’s newest skyscraper. One World Trade Center is already the tallest building in Lower Manhattan, and it still has another 30 stories to go.

“Right now it is the tallest, and it’s going to soar above everything else," said Ward. "I mean, if New York loves skyscrapers, they’re going to love this building, because it is going to look impressive.”
