Floor 100 is 1,240' or 1,244' 4'' to the splices. I guess one of the three mounting points seen on those columns is not a floor. It must be to mount the glass on only. Thanks for the info Alan.

Amazing pictures. This is the start of a brand new age.

NewYorkDominates · #**21664** Posted **Mar 23, 2012, 6:19 AM**

A new era has begun for all fellow New Yorkers.

I also don't get how we have 2 jumps left,yet we have over 130 feet left.
Maybe last 2 floors are 23' tall=56'+parapet=56'+36'=92'
I know I'm missing something.

Tallest or not, can we just agree it's really fricking tall?

Love the progress and the updated pics!!!

The mechanical floors might take a bit longer to complete, but you sure can notice the jump in height when they're done!!!

Looks like on the next jump the corners will meet. Wow it's really close to topping out.

I was going to mention the corner thing myself... Wow!! Look how close together they are now! I have noticed the columns for that part of 1 WTC slowly becoming diagonal. Every time I see these columns, I always think, "It looks like it's going to fall over" but then I remember that's how they're supposed to be. Lol. And now they REALLY look like they're going to fall over.

This is making me super psyched for my NYC visit - I will be there mid-June. So all the steel should be in place by then, the cladding I am sure will still be getting worked on and they should have started on the spire. Big difference from my last visit when 1 WTC was at the 83rd floor and cladding had just passed 7 WTC in height!

looks like exactly two more jumps for the corners to meet -but it still has over 120 feet to go...

...that would seem to indicate that the corners meet at around 1315 ft, which can't be right...

The corners meet at 1368 (417 meters) The jumps may be a little higher for the last two.
