wow, the new red crawler crane is much bigger than the first one and I think it's only a matter of time before the West permiter columns start to rise!
Those columns are the inner wall of the air plenum that runs from the 3rd floor all the way up to the underside of the 20th floor. All four sides well have em.
This tower is gonna be awesome once it's done! I think it is simple but classy and I love the way it seems to mirror the shape of the Empire State Building (see rendering below from dailydaydreamer.wordpress.com). NYC is a beast and will always be the skyscraper capital of the world!
“Office buildings are our factories – whether for tech, creative or traditional industries we must continue to grow our modern factories to create new jobs,” said United States Senator Chuck Schumer.
Finally, that must be the second floor machanical plate Zensteeldude was talking about. Wow, it didn't take long to finally see this in place.
This is really starting to become exciting! The only bad part about this is that the earthcam isn't working again, but it's nothing close-up pictures can't fix.
Leave this thread to Freedom Tower related discussion. Thanks.
The financial district of Lower Manhattan is a relatively small (compared to Midtown) neighborhood, and before 9/11, whenever you were down there, you felt immanently close
to the World Trade Center. Hard to explain, but I have that feeling again whenever I'm down there. There's a sense of something huge going on.
