Hahaha,I even doubt it may top off on June.Don't we have 2 mechanical floors plus the parapet?

I wish they would install the base glass soon. I'm just dying to see it get installed.

Great shot Carlos.....took 6 days for all the outer steel and netting

2-TOWERS · #**22877** Posted: **May 6, 2012, 2:09 PM**

Carlos if you get a chance can you post a pic with the transparency finish..

NewYorker2009 · #**22878** Posted: **May 6, 2012, 2:33 PM**

Great shot Carlos! I believe they added another core column because it shows on Earthcam too so the Tower picked up some height yet again. Which just goes to show they want to top out in the early summer and seem not to let the weather stand in their way.

CarlosV · #**22879** Posted: **May 6, 2012, 2:56 PM**

^^^

it looked like it but i just took this photo and no core column was installed....that must have been part of the cocoon thing .....
