I'm super jealous of anyone who will get to work here (or really in any of the 4 towers). I'm thinking some of the best views from this building will be: lower floors, south face overlooking the memorial; higher floors, basically all views will be awesome.

Except facing north in the bottom floors But that's probably where the less important workers will go.

They had to slow the construction down so they could secretly install devices throughout the whole building that allow the NSA to read your thoughts, so they can illegally monitor and detain anyone who might be thinking of certain "key words" that might make them a terrorist in the building.

Crazy how just a couple of buildings (1WTC, one57, bofa) made the whole skyline look so much more slope-y/spiky again.

Looking at that pano, its crazy to think how the full WTC complex and the full hudson yards will dramatically change that view. Along with the 57th street projects, there will be a lot more spikes in the skyline. A little more height along the West side highway bridging lower to mid town would be awesome. One giant connected skyline.
