One World Trade Center


I went to the World Trade Center today to meet two friends and to tour the 9/11 Memorial.  I took the E train to the World Trade Center stop and when I came up to the street, this is what I saw!  It stopped me in my tracks!  I have seen One World Trade Center while it was under construction, but never finished.  And now the outside is done, and the antenna is on top, topping it out to 1776 feet.  It is so impressive how the mirrored glass surfaces reflect the clouds and the sky. I think that's what stopped me - that the surface of the building matched the sky.

That's exactly it! It does appear that we are looking through the building! Thanks for seeing exactly what it was that attracted me to the scene.

Oh my! That picture of the 1-WTC is just perfect, in the right timing and in right angle. It's really like you're seeing through it. Anyway, the building is truly a marvel of architecture and beauty. I do hope I can ascend its heights soon. Thanks for sharing a slice of your life, as well as the amazing picture! More power to you and your blog!
