At least one person died during the final stages of construction of 7 WTC. I believe they fell into an elevator shaft.

But yep. Nobody on 1 WTC.

Port Authority: "Okay everybody it's going up this morning!"

*reporters flock to the scene*

"...is exactly what we'll be saying on July 4th."

Really what is the hold up? Weather has been amazing, little to no wind. I do get the wind is different at the top so is that the reason?

Starting to think it might not go up today.

I'm tiered of you armchair construction specialists. Use some common sense!
The wind yesterday was lower than it is today if I'm not mistaken. Today is just 'good' cus it's the day Osama died. Symbolism or something?

If the problem was wind then why isn't it going up RIGHT NOW??? Not a breath in that sky.

not to excuse the developer, but this new spire, with its industrial look, fits perfectly well with the new york skyline.

Trust me you haven't missed anything. It's not attached, it's just been sitting on the platform at the top all day.
