Wednesday was a particularly nice day - considering this is one of the top 10 wettest summers ever in NYC. So, appreciating the fine weather I strolled over to one of our neighbors and went up top to view our site.
One World Trade Center (left rear) is now well above one thousand feet and Four World Trade Center (right front) is doing well, too.
I figured a fine (and rare) day such as this deserved a trip to the "TOP". So, up I went on the lift to the "top of the house". But, rare fine days like this deserve a little extra effort. So up the tower crane we go.
The boys get ready to hang some steel.
Hmmm, Jersey, I think I see my house...
Well, let's see what's happening to the east in Brooklyn and Queens.

Would make a great poster. You might try marketing those. If that's legal to do. I'd buy one.

Great shots... almost have an HDR quality to them

Only way I would allow myself to get that high is in an aircraft. 3 stories is high enough, been higher and never liked it. Does not matter if inside a completed building or not, I would never go willingly.
jud
cool pics-
but that water looks NASTY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:-P
Stunning...
Absolutely stunning! It always amazes me when I think about how many people live and work in all of that area, so compacted but for the most part so organized.
Thank you for sharing, Scott!!! :angel:

Thanks Scott!! You do have the pictures figured out!! I would like to be the crane operator, except for the fact that you can't look around much...sort of like drivin' and wanting to sight see!!
cool pics-
I think the recent flooding upstream has enhanced the Hudson's hue. Lots of channel clearing work is being done upstream. The Susquehanna will be off color as well. Yellow machines in the creeks will do that.
Nice stuff, as always, Scott. Thank you!
