2 WTC, or 200 Greenwich, will be the last of the 4 to start, but they will virtually all rise together. Towers 2, 3, 4, and then 5 will be in the new tub that's being constructed now. Only the Freedom Tower will stand in the original tub.

It's being done quietly, but I find this part to be exciting as well. It's the same process as the original constuction - slurry wall for the tub first, then everthing else.
