Silverstein Bond Offer Advances

By ELIOT BROWN
October 21, 2011

Quote:

Developer Larry Silverstein and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey are planning to issue about $1.3 billion in bonds in the first half of November, according to a person familiar with the matter, a move that comes after a similar planned sale ran into repeated snags.

The financing is necessary for Mr. Silverstein to fund the continued construction of 4 World Trade Center, one of two towers rising on the Ground Zero site that has now reached a height of 56 stories.

The climbing crane on the side of the building has fallen behind glass installation. They started a second row on the north face of the tower.

So if The W is 631 ft. and 7 is 751 ft... where are we at here? If this understated beauty is getting ready to pass up 7... well that's just pretty damn awesome in my book!

It'll pass both 7 and Liberty Plaza around the same time. We're very close now.

Wow I have never realized what a monster this building is... it looks huge in those photos. Impressive.

NYguy · #**1975** Posted **Oct 27, 2011, 11:12 PM**

It will look even more impressive in height with the setback approaching.

Thank you Pico... it feels good to actually start using my voice here. I used to come to this site just to look at the diagrams and play around with the search tool to look at different buildings in various cities and countries. But after this recent 9/11 anniversary... and seeing the mighty ONE in the background of some of the TV coverage... I decided to google some recent hi-rez pics... and that of course led me here to the forums.

As I stated over on the "One WTC" thread, I've spent the last several weeks reading page after page of that thread. My god what a fascinating journey that building... ney... the whole WTC site has been on! And I, as I'm sure everybody else is... can't wait to see 4 dominate over Liberty Plaza and 7.

But you may want to hold off on "liking" me until after I've voiced my opinions over on the 2 WTC this weekend. I think there's something horribly wrong with the top of that incredible building... and I just can't wait to express it and see what the opinions of others may be.

I'm still drooling over the glass.

This building is as thick and heavy as 1 liberty plaza yet it presents the most drastic contrast possible.

Dylan Leblanc · #**1979** Posted **Oct 28, 2011, 9:48 AM**

wow that's looking great!

Danielson27 · #**1980** Posted **Oct 31, 2011, 8:45 PM**

that last office has been decked out. It looks like we could see steel for the rest of that mechanical level in the next two days
