Meet the New World Trade Center!
These amazing photos of the 1776 foot tall new trade center have now been published, and boy are they exciting! This new tower is certainly beautiful, and will be a source of pride no doubt to people of New York City, who have lost so much 12 years ago. See the stunning views and the enormous amount of construction this project entails!
Working above 1,700 feet in the air! Ironworkers install final sections on top of One WTC, May 2013
“Iron workers and engineers prepare the beacon that will sit on top of One WTC’s spire.”
Incredible view of the city and its new tower
“From on top of One WTC, you can see the East River Bridges, Brooklyn and Queens.”
“Window installers walk along beams at dizzying heights from the 102nd Floor of One WTC to install curtain wall panels.”
