If you want you can look at the cranes as sort of a rabbit mast.

It's funny you say that because that's one of the reasons what really got me to like the idea

Core columns being hoisted up this morning. They look about 50 ft tall.

Yeah they are installing the core columns as seen on Earthcam. Once the 92nd floor gets done then the next set of perimeter columns go up so it repeats the process. The new core columns put the Tower over 1,200'.

Ahhhhh, I love shots like this one... 1 WTC looks so fat and so big in this shot. Does that even make sense? In other shots, it just looks tall and slender. It totally throws you off to the fact that it's actually pretty massive in real life now.

(Man, I'm really going to miss seeing under-construction pictures once it tops out! But it'll be great to have a 2nd building finally finished )

Those core columns extend to 93rd floor I believe which is 1,208' 4" and I guess add 8 feet for the splice.
