^Got a cross street from where you'd like to see the new buildings from?

How about from Weehawken NJ? Or the GW Bridge?

FYI, everything's on hiatus until the end of the semester a week from tomorrow. After that, I'll have time to fix up a few things I've been meaning to, including a final 3WTC.

^Well, here's a teaser. I had an hour to mess around with things tonight, which gave me the time to redo the WTC site elevations and add in Liberty Park. LP will have a roughly 18' high wall on West St, same elevation as the old WTC Plaza level, which allows the WFC South Bridge to exit out on to it.



Looking ahead, once I have 3WTC done, I'm gonig to go back to the other buildings and build-in the underground floors and more interior work (Lobbies, cores, and maybe some internal lighting). Mainly to prepare for the Memorial and Transit Hub, but also to get the ground floors correct on all the buildings and finalize the ground elevations. Then it's time for the memorial and landscaping. Not sure what method I'm going to use for trees. Good looking trees have a lot of polygons and this Manhattan model is already pushing 4 million with everything in it now.

I THINK I'm finally happy with the glass. This has been bugging me for a month.

You guys have no idea how nice the view is from the observation deck.

You get to enjoy the views early.

I was going to suggest Beekman Tower, but with all those ridges it'll probably be hell on earth to make.

^^^ Agreed, that one is my favorite. Those last batch of photos were drop-dead gorgeous.

Oh man, the one looking up WTC 1 with the other 3 completed is just amazing. The one with a completed WTC 1 and 4 just made me think about what 2 & 3 will look by then.

Anyways, can not wait to see what you come up with next STR!

Edit: Didn't see C57 in the Midtown skyline, just ridiculous.

^Thanks. You missed Tower Verre too. It showed up in a couple of those.

Also, the yankees suck :p

Can't believe I missed Verre you can barely see it in most of them. I imagine you only have a rough sketch of Verre, but do you plan on posting some with C57 and Verre?

Also, I'm going to refrain from responding to your comment about the Yanks don't want to upset you, at least not until your next round of pictures.

Top-notch renderings as always! I can only aspire to create works of art as these

A request of sorts; would it be possible to get a view from the Memorial area (perhaps with a tree or two in the foreground)? Either that, or a potential view of the area at night (if you know how 1WTC and the other buildings will be lit up) would be phenomenal!
