Yes I know, what I am saying is behind the wall is where 5WTC will be, the phase II area where the plaza used to be will be the new Greek orthodox

This is the new World Trade Center. No need for arguments. This is the site plan.

Well, they sure didn't waste any time putting that new crane into action!

For that, and a lot of other reasons I continue to say that T4 will top out before T1. Unless I missed an earlier post, I think I was the first forum member to make that prediction (here in this thread) and it looks like that point of view is becoming more popular.

I don't see what can stop it now, T4 only has what, two jumps left? And the T1 upper levels are vastly more complicated, and bigger to boot.

I'm loving seeing the two 4 WTC cranes "dancing" in sync again It looked so sad with just one crane for a while there!

Very excited to see it again in person... 4 WTC has doubled in height since I last visited!

Hard to believe there's still quite some more to go considering how already massive this one is.

^^ Yep, just shy of 900'. Who knows, after that fugly spire the 1WTC is going to have, people will appreciate 4WTC more, if not already.

It's close, but a floor or two should be integrated into the building easily to match One 57 or succeed it.

They really should just add the few extra feet and make this a supertall,
it's close enough and being how gorgeous this building is it deserves it!

I keep thinking to myself - the crane operator working in the west-side crane (the newly replaced crane) is hella brave to work in it, given how far up from the building it is. It's a good 15 or so stories in the air!
