Otie's diagram shows that there are 6 or 7 more jumps till topping off, and each column is 20 something feet so floors 92 and 93 are twice the height of the office floors.

They remind me of my youth when I was young and I used to look out the window of my parent's Chinatown apartment and see the Twin Towers with the setting sun, and it would look just like those images you posted Carlos, but now new towers are being built, and they are completely different from the Twins, and I am proud something is being built to fill the void and to give the lights that the Twin Towers used to do. Slowly but surely your picture confirms that these new buildings will take over the job of the Twin Towers pretty well.

Floor 89 is the 1st tall floor at 1,107, 8''
90 is 1,130' 8''
91 is 1,151' 8''
92 is 1,181' 8'' (As of today we are here)
92m is 1,194' 8''
93 is 1208' 4''
93m is 1,223' 6'' (The same as the ESB floor 102 1,224')
(Not including splices)

sw5710 Feb 10, 2012 2:24 AM

If you count the M floors One World Trade Center would only have 100 floors not 104. I honestly wished that it had 110 to match the floor count of the Twin Towers.

Just went to the 9/11 memorial were I have a view of the taller buildings in the distance 30 miles......a full yellow harvest moon, huge too, was rising above the city, & gosh it was GORGEOUS! Wish I had my FZ100

Because they skipped multiple floor numbers, and if you count the concrete base it would actually make One World Trade Center an 85 story building...
