I just have to make this observation on how crazy 150G/WTC4 is:
From the looks of it, this seems to be the only facade treatment that can capture a high-noon hued sky at freaking dusk.
I mean the reflection is 2x brighter than any light turned on there.

Just waiting for a car to melt because of the reflection. From the bay, it looks like a giant mirror. Amazing.

For a car to "melt" the facade would have to be concave to focus light, and all the facades of the WTC will be flat, thank goodness. The developers of the concave walkie talkie tower clearly forgot about that.

Damn the WTC Complex is complicated! Do you know if the underground West Concourse Hall will also lead into One World Trade Center or only the Transportation Hub?

It looks like there will be an office connection at the B2 level...
Workers commuting to One World Trade Center will enjoy unprecedented access to mass transit service. Dazzling new climate-controlled corridors will connect One World Trade Center to the WTC Transportation Hub and the new PATH terminal, 11 NYC Transit subway lines and the new Fulton Street Transit Center, the World Financial Center and ferry terminal, underground parking and world-class shopping and dining.

Yes. However, the Freedom Tower won't have as much retail as the others.

Sadly I agree completely with Banksy on this one. The following is a quote from the artist. I'm certain that most of you here will disagree and you can happily disregard it. I only post it because I hope that some developer somewhere may see this and understand that they are completely devoid of inspiration. It's a business opportunity for any developer who finally figures it out.

You know, at first I didn't like the tower either. But the more I look at it, the more I realize just how amazing it truly is. While it could have been better, it certainly is not bad. Do you remember the old designs of the Freedom Tower?

It's nice to see some of these interior shots.
