even so however much of the core has been poured already is definitely built to support whatever will go on top of it. they're not going to tear it all out and start over.

of course not, and on the bright side of this, we might get to see cladding sooner after the first pour than any of the other towers. I'm going to update my model with the new construction images.

That's right, clips that will support the curtain wall are being welded to the spandrel beams. Guess we need to wait some weeks after the fireproofing is finished before enclosing the lobby.

Has concrete on deck already started?

New model, using pictures. There are minor discrepancies for functional and complexity reasons.

3 World Trade is up & coming

"Another tower at Ground Zero could soon be on the rise.

Developer Larry Silverstein is “closer than anyone realizes” to landing tenants that would allow him to complete Tower 3 at the World Trade Center, Mayor Bloomberg told The Post.

“I think we’re pretty close downtown at the World Trade Center — closer than anybody realizes — to getting tenants for [Tower] No. 3,” the mayor said during a year-end interview last week.

The likely anchor tenant is GroupM — a subsidiary of the world’s largest advertising company, WPP — which a source said is in “advanced talks” to sign a lease.

GroupM has been looking to consolidate its operations in the city by leasing about 550,000 of the 2.8 million square feet in Tower 3, an 80-story structure Silverstein hopes to construct by 2015.

The law firm of White & Case has also been reported to be looking for space in the same building.

Tower 2, meanwhile, is not making similar progress, Bloomberg said.

During the interview, Hizzoner said Tower 2 was “way down the road. You’d have every building but 2 going.”

Tower 3 became a question mark last year when prospective tenants — including Morgan Stanley and UBS — lost interest amid concerns about slowing growth in the financial industry...

...Speaking of the mayor, Stephen Ross, the developer of Hudson Yards, said: “He’s got to get one more tenant for the first big building and then the platform [over the rail yards] makes sense.

“Once you have the platform,” he added,“the West Side is going to be residential and that’s easy to finance. That will not be a problem.”

Good news..... This will rise fast.

NYC4Life · #**3009** Posted **Jan 2, 2013, 5:34 PM**

Good news indeed. Hopefully now more potential tenants can start lining up and Tower 2 can get off the ground as well.

NewYorkDominates · #**3010** Posted **Jan 2, 2013, 5:47 PM**

Love it,can't wait for it to go up.

Report: Plans Rising For 3 WTC Tower

Quote:

With 1 World Trade on the rise, plans for 3 World Trade Center are reportedly getting off the ground.
Mayor Michael Bloomberg tells the New York Post that developer Larry Silverstein is close to inking to a deal with tenants that would allow for completion of the tower.

Sources tell the Post the likely anchor tenant would be Group M, part of advertising giant WPP.

Silverstein has already finished the below-ground portions of the building but plans for the rest of the tower were up in the air after prospective tenants, including Morgan Stanley and UBS, lost interest.

Silverstein is hoping to have the 80-story tower complete by 2015.

PMad, beautiful models.

But comparing them to the pictures posted just below, it seems that you got the diagonal braces on the East side reversed.

FWIW, I think it looks better your way

NYC GUY · #**3014** Posted **Jan 2, 2013, 9:37 PM**

Pretty good news 2015 would be earlier than i thought. When should this start rising again?

2013 is looking to be the best year yet of the current construction boom!
