Thank you very much! :-) I did have a blast going into the City From Long Island. I really love doing this. I love doing videos & pictures of New York City. I am glad that I am now sharing my own photos on here with this Foarm. 1WTC is now in the Skyline! :-) I have alot more videos that I will be posting on my channel. I am currently reposting alot of old videos from years ago onto my channel. Just 2 months ago, I wiped out all of the videos off of my channel. I decided to re-do my channel & post alot of videos in time order. This video was a must see so I posted it right away! :-) Thank you for posting this video in a better video box for me! :-) -Greg (IntoTheLens827).

For those that (still?) want to debate what the tower is called (really?), that thread is here: http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=167071


For those that have managed to wrap their brains around it, continue to post on topic as planned...

I recall years ago when the Goldman Sachs building was under construction -- now it's just diagonally across the way from One World Trade Center!

Look at the skyscraper density going on now. :tup:

Lower Manhattan is better than Midtown Manhattan due to the narrower streets,giving it a canyon-like feeling.

YES, EXACTLY! I loooooove to walk thru the Financial District for that reason alone. You just feel so tiny amongst all these tall buildings crowded together. Then once you get to the WTC, it opens up a little more (the way it is right now). I'm sure within several years' time, when all the buildings are up, it'll give everybody that tiny feeling. :)

I love to walk up the streets east of the WTC - away from all the subway stations near the WTC. You start to see 1/4/7 WTC, and it just hits you. WHAM! I couldn't stop looking up at 1 WTC my last visit... It's just soooooooo big :D

I don't care what anyone says, Park Ave is still the greatest skyscraper canyon of all time.

Park Avenue? As in 432 Park Avenue? That narrow pencil? It's a horrible design and by far one of the worst designs that i've seen.

Avenue of the Americas,XYZ buildings are bland but imposing.Most amazing canyon in my opinion.

I heard steel should go up sometime Wednesday or Thursday.
