Ahhhhhhh. The rising glass on both 1 and 4 WTC still takes my breath away every time I see pics of them/see them in person. I am really digging how close 4 WTC is to being completely cladded... As well as the shrinking black netting on 1 WTC!! It's definitely shrinking noticeably with every passing week!

WTC Construction Leads to Downgrade of Port Authority’s Bond Rating
By Ted Mann
Quote:
The potential downgrade that spooked the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey into raising tolls and fares last year happened anyway Monday, and a driving factor was the cost of reconstruction at the World Trade Center in lower Manhattan.
Analysts from Moody’s Investors Service downgraded the bond rating for the Port, to Aa3 from Aa2. The downgrade will affect $18.2 billion in consolidated bonds, Moody’s said. It could add millions of dollars to the Port’s borrowing costs, even as leadership struggles to shore up its finances as the World Trade Center development enters its final stages.
The primary factor in the downgrade was roughly $2 billion in new costs the authority will shoulder through 2016, a figure driven by the authority’s share of the redevelopment of the Trade Center. In addition, a recently completed audit of the authority’s finances shows as much as $17 billion in new potential capital needs over the next 10 years...
