Really I found 15 feet online. I guess it was wrong. I will admit that.

Awesome Otie. Now people can finally keep their mouths shut about the building.

Do you have the elevations of 91M and 102M and the other upper floors.

As far as I am concerned, the top floor of WTC-1 is level three on the communication ring, or 1401 ft (1406 ft from Vesey). Even if it is only maintenance personnel (mostly) who will use it -its like another mechanical floor, but outdoors. The highest thing you could stand on in the old WTC was the outdoor observation platform on tower 2 which was at 1377 ft, and it was a pretty good distance back from the edge, limiting the view somewhat compared to the view from the communication rings.

Also, the view from the 102nd floor deck will be far better than the old, slightly higher (~40 ft) deck in WTC-2 because of the massive increase in window space/obstruction-free viewing area.

I wonder if they will do the steps down with seating at the windows?

102M is located inside the core and is at 1,279'-10" above lobby floor. I believe there's no specific elevations for the minor mezzanines since they may be a composition of really small slabs at different elevations.

Not sure what you mean. You can't have a more unobstructed view than the old outdoor deck. I never missed a chance to stand out there and look at my digs on Governor's Island. Something about being outside on top of the building just made it an incomparable experience. It made looking through windows like seeing the view on TV for me.

We just need a FAQ we can link people to when they have questions like these.

I suggested that like a year ago and got attacked by everyone God forbid someone that isn't a super ultra nerd who jerks off to steel and cement comes on here and asks a question about an extraordinarily obscure fact that no one outside of the actual engineers or architects should ever care to know...

If you look extremely closely at the close up photo, you can see the rows of glass lined up and prepared to be put up

I should have clarified: I was comparing the indoor observation deck on the old WTC (~1309 ft) to the 102 floor deck on the new WTC-1. I was also comparing the third level on the communications ring to the old outdoor platform on WTC-2.
