Plenty of steel and no concrete. The construction method of the West Tower was different, wasn't it ?

I wouldn't say there's no concrete. The West tower looked very similar at this stage of construction, and it had a concrete core.

Hmmm... right.
I was watching the photo update that you posted earlier today.
The things going up above ground between the columns are steel slabs, aren't they ?

Those 'slabs' are hollow. Additionally, they have pegs to help them mesh with the concrete. They look like hundreds of tiny dots.

Fantastic !
It's one step ahead of Ping An in Shenzhen.
I always have the impression that these two cities are competing in the field of skyscrapers.
