Go there and walk south down 11th Avenue from 34th to 30th You can get a great view from the middle of that stretch of sidewalk between 35 and 15 Hudson Yards.
When you reach 30th Street turn right (West) and climb the stairs to the High Line and go past the kids play area towards the river (near the fence that separates the interim walkway from the finished walkway) and you can see it from that angle (and possibly some of the pieces yet to be lifted in the Western Rail Yard).
Then, while still on the High Line, walk East to the Coach Building's (10 Hudson Yards) courtyard off the High Line near 15 Hudson Yards' Culture Shed and you can get a great view from there over the construction fence.
You can also get a great view of it from the small bit of Hudson Park at the 34th Street Subway (7 Train) entrance/exit.
