Good call! We have reached the height of the roof.1,334' or 1,338' with splices.

Looking good.. I guess they're on target for a June top out.

Some of my latest rendering work I made during my free time:

Rendering made in Kerkythea, model made mainly in SketchUp + some work in 3DS Max

Either they are modular and will be taken down piece by piece, or they they are just going to toss them down and hope for the best.

In a complementeve way, How did you know that?

I am so happy that this tower is nearly at the end of the skeletal construction.

Prior to the 20'-27' columns,they were installing 40'-43' tall columns and it was just logical(in my opinion) to install tall columns for the last couple of floors.

sw5710 · #**23993** Posted **Jun 5, 2012, 11:10 PM**

1,339' to the splices

WTCman7301 · #**23994** Posted **Jun 5, 2012, 11:31 PM**

So what is the height of 1 WTC now?

Ignore this comment my question was answered in the previous post.

You saw how they assembled the second crane for Four World Trade Center. It was modular so they are going to disassemble them and drop them down. However before they do that they will have to use the current cranes to assemble a giant tower crane to assemble the antenna/mast. Once that is done then the cranes will completely disappear.

Two more jumps. Floor 104, 105, and then the parapet. However Four World Trade Center needs one more jump and that is the parapet.

NYC GUY · #**23996** Posted **Jun 6, 2012, 12:39 AM**

I thought the jump from today is for 104, 105.

Whoops we are at 104. We still need 105 and the parapet.

Dense_Electric · #**23998** Posted **Jun 6, 2012, 1:10 AM**

So is this jump the roof jump? I thought the columns were supposed to converge underneath the facade at the roof, and that the facade corners would converge at the parapet.

Nope,sw5710 clearly said we are at 1339' to the splices,meaning we only have the parapet left.Parapet is the last jump.

meh_cd · #**24000** Posted **Jun 6, 2012, 1:27 AM**

We are still missing the top nodes as well as the parapet steel.
