But I like the short design with 55 floors.

This would have genuinely improved the massing so much.

Indeed so, but the new WTC is where the bare minimum thrives.

Speaking of, don’t get me started on One WTC’s “spire”

It is factually a spire

It may technically be a spire, but it has no architectural merit as it’s only an internal supporting structure that was never designed to be visible (apart from the beacon) – even David Childs thought that.

Anyone have any ideas when they will fence off the remaining sections of the site? I guess it’s not very important right now but I’m also curious as to when they will start digging up the part of the site where the beer garden sat as well. Correct me if I’m wrong but the dark concrete section where the beer garden was is also part of the tower foot print, no?

Just got them… from me :melting_face:

And this entire schedule appears to be 2-4 months behind the actual one.

Looks like work inside the core has really ramped up, with internal formwork going in and more of the final ducts coming out. As JRF indicated, a first pour during the week of November 1 seems likely.
