1 World Trade Center Getting Glassed



Thursday, December 23, 2010, by Joey Arak

Quote:
Coming hot on the heels of this morning's Linkage photo, a special Curbed FiDi correspondent passes on some fresh pics of the fledgling facading of 1 World Trade Center. Now there's a glass band going around the building—which has hit the halfway mark of its 104-story height—and its positioning kind of makes it look like 1 WTC is wearing a flashy WWE-style championship belt. A message to those who doubted this thing would ever get off the ground?

^ In the last pic on the right corner it looks like they went up 2 floors with corner cladding, but maybe its an illusion.

Does anybody know who makes the Google Earth model of 1 WTC? I think it needs an update with all this new glass!

That is some slick cladding going on. It looks like something out of the new Tron movie.

Merry Christmas everyone!

The shots in NY Guy's Post 11668 are amazing - the FT looks to be an instant classic completely integrated into the fabric of old Gotham.
