1WTC Freedom Tower UPDATE (June 8, 2011)

[BlackkScissors]

I miss the the Twin Towers alot too but I am just glad they're building the WTC again!

[MrJackonRocks]

One world trade center means something to me. One World Our Freedom.

[MrJackonRocks]

Sir its not gonna be 68 strories lier. There will be 104..look on Ask.com.

[IntoTheLens827]

@MrJackonRocks Um, ok............... Excuse me. But If you noticed, this video was made & put up on June 8, 2011 while the tower was on the 68th Floor. (This was a "update video" for the tower). I know the tower will have 105 floors. Thank you for calling me a Lier. Have a nice day! :-)

[KrushKrills]

@IntoTheLens827

long islander? lol

[IntoTheLens827]

@KrushKrills Yea, that's where I am from lol! Only 40 miles away from the WTC. I go into the city to see the WTC construction every few months. I can't wait for the Llong Island Rail Road to go down there to the MTA Futon Street Transit Center. I hope that plan isn't killed yet. I didn't hear anything in years about the L.I.R.R. going downtown Manhattan.

[myredpip]

@MrJackonRocks 104!!! WTF why not 110 like the orignal!!!

[daniloorbolato]

Thanks man!

[sebkav88]

Oh my god..Why the hell would you want a remake of WTC.I dont want to forget 9/11.If we build it then we will forget 9/11.

[MrJackonRocks]

@sebkav88 we will not forget 9/11 because of the memorial pools. doi

[countdown72]

Can you imagine going up to the top of this tower and looking down on where the Twins were? I can't think of anything worse.

[admx94]

And... haters will be haters... nothing more.

[way2speak]

um... i dont think they will be finished by 2013 thats too long and they are halfway done

[groovatormonstruous]

Rebuild whatever style u want, but please BUILD TIWNS TOWERS. I mean, the twins concept is so beautiful

[IntoTheLens827]

@groovatormonstruous I saw I photo online a while back like a few months ago with "Twin 1WTC Freedom Towers". I thought that was cool. I just wish now they went with that plan. To tell you the truth, I am upset that the new WTC will look good from the NJ. I just wish the tower was higher now. They could of had the building up to the "1,776" Foot Mark (Roof Height) & had the spire go past 2,000 feet. I am upset that the future 2WTC is going to block 1WTC from the east. I like new master plan.....

[IntoTheLens827]

@groovatormonstruous I like the new master plan alot, but I just wish the did make 1WTC Freedom Tower Twins & Taller. I guess I just have to go to NJ to see the real effect! I am just glad they are rebuilding the complex period. It will be very interesting when all the other buildings are built. :-)

[groovatormonstruous]

@IntoTheLens827

And never forget that the towers were not in cause, it's the plane security plan that need to evolve a lot!

I really hope that one day , New York will see the twin towers back, with an even better style. But the main thing to focus is the plane security. Look, the cockpit dorrs are still easily accesible, aren't them? (excuse my language cause i'm french.).And personnalyly i would love to live in New York, it' still a very dreamy town to me!

[IVghead2]

they are making 2 right same hight



[pillinaama40]

One WTC is gonna be 541 meters.

[theguywhokillyou2]

imagine this was plane proof...

[robby123ism]

plz.. make them shorter this is too tall its very dangerous. i know lol no one gives a fuck about this comment but.. what made the old wtc so vulnerable was there height and if ur make them tall again. ur just making it easier

[TheLuke1729]

@robby123ism dont worry. look up the safety precautions and the technology they are using.If anything bad does happen the tower and the people will be fine.

[YouDoctorTube]

cool but new york just aint the same without the twin towers.

[jwhite50421]

i want the twin towers back NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!

[IntoTheLens827]

@jwhite50421 I wish we can get them back. Built better & stronger. Yea, I miss them also.... But the work on the new towers is started & already in the works. We gotta move forward now. I am looking forward to a new beginning now. We just CAN NOT FORGET what happened on that site on September 11, 2001. I am happy that the National 9-11 Memorial Plaza is now open to the public. It's a healing process & I still need to get my ticket so I can go & pay my "Real Respects" now that it's opened now.

[STRIKER8814]

The freedom tower is going to be taller then the original towers

[STRIKER8814]

The freedom tower is going to be taller then the original towers

[redilliop]

You can't count that antenna (spire) as sole height. Sears argued that when Petronas took tallest building in the world away from it, because their 88 floors topped out 20 floors BELOW Sears' top floor. At least the spires on Petronas make it look more like it's part of the building, this things spire (antenna) looks just like One WTC originally did. Roof to roof, they may be the same but 110 to 106, NOT the same, meaning the new one won't have most sole office floors under one roof anymore.

[bobzeda]

@SINISTER666SNARE

Original WTC was TALLER. It will only be the same height using that 20 story flag pole. It is much smaller in square footage of office space and floor. Ground to roof, it quite a bit smaller. I'm not sure why you are allowed to count a 'spire" or pole as real height.

[IntoTheLens827]

@bobzeda I don't understand why they are counting the spire. I belive they should count the real height to the roof top. I don't know why on some buildings they have the roof top height, & for others, the spires. hmmmm..... Something to look into.

[TrumpetHero15]

@bobzeda The new tower at the roof is the same height as the originals. The roof height of the original and new are 1,368ft. The spire adds 408ft, making it 1,776ft total. So, the buildings themselves without the spire are the same. The reason why the square footage is less is because the building is not a rectangle, which maximizes square footage. Also, the 200ft base where there are no offices makes it less. However, all towers combined add about 10million sq ft; same as original complex.

[CopsWithDongs]

wonder if this 1 will be jerry built like the last

[IntoTheLens827]

@SINISTER666SNARE 2WTC & 3WTC are being built right now at we speak, but they are still below-grade. I think they are going to be above-grade by December. After that, I have no idea what's going to happen with both towers cause of the Ecomony. Sooo, I am just going to wait & see what happens with that. 4WTC is going up steady now & getting alot done. 5WTC, well who knows what's going on with that one right now. They are working on the VSC in the basement section of 5WTC.

[IntoTheLens827]

@SINISTER666SNARE It's going to be the same height as the twin towers.

[FlashMaster659]

@IntoTheLens827 82nd floor now

[MtLionProductionz]

@IntoTheLens827 no the show raising ground zero says itz going to be 400 feet taller.

[fntsydrgn]

They ought to put some tank guns or something on top on these...just in case, oh and a military gaurd shack on top too...just in case

[rabbs33]

notice the non violent muslims dont talk about the kurans idea of dealing with infadels(non-muslims).im sure they all use the same book. i get goose bumps thinking of the american spirit.being american isnt a piece of paper,its heritage and in the blood.willingness to die for the flag we swore allegiance to!!!!! go U S A !!!!!!!

[TheBrokenBulb]

Got a lil question. do you know the base square feet? im trying to make this on minecraft but cant seem to get an adequet measure. thanks

[Debbita15]

@TheOfficialSimba1 they are making it 1776 floors cause of the revolutionary war aint that cool! I ♥ AMERICA!!!!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!

[TheBrokenBulb]

@Debbita15 love your patriotism but they arnt making1776. thatll be alot of floors. they are making it 1776 feet tall. :)

GO AMERICA!!!!!!!!!HELLZ TO THE YEAAAAAAH!!!!!!!!!!!

[inwood211]

81 FLOORS OF STEEL ANYONE WHO CARES WILL REMEMBER THE PROGRESS WE DOCUMENTED MAYBE IN 2021?

[inwood211]

81 FLOORS OF STEEL

[inwood211]

GREAT TO SEE YOUR VISION OF THE PROGRESS AND TO KNOW WHEN TOWER ONE IS FINISHED IT WILL BE VERY OBVIOUS THAT ITS THE TALLEST. KEEP UP THE DOCUMENT.

[IntoTheLens827]

@TheOfficialSimba1 I know. This thing is getting close to topping out! YEA BABY!!!!!!!!! Loving it! Well, they did say then wanted it to be 1000 Feet by September 11, 2011. That documentry was great on the Discover Channel last Thurs & last night! :-) Glad I taped it & recorded it onto DVD. Glad they did a good job making it! :-) Can't wait for the new ones to come out in another 5-10 years from now. I loved seeing how the original WTC & the Twin Towers were built. :-)

[MythHunterVGPI]

Now, 76!!

[IntoTheLens827]

@MythHunterVGPI NICE!!!!! :-) This Tower Is Shooting Up Now! :-) It's going up faster & faster now. It should be Topping-Out around Chrismas Time at this rate. I am going to be doing another video a few days from now. Thanks for the info & update! :-)

[MythHunterVGPI]

@IntoTheLens827 No problem brother! Everyday I'm looking tio this nice progress!

[DTRAVELZ]

Hey cool video. I hope you keep updating. I will check in. I can see the Tower from my window, I live in Queens. and I can see it progressing.

[IntoTheLens827]

@DTRAVELZ Thanks :-) I only do updates every few months. I was actully in the city today personly. So I did take alot of new videos & pictures. I can't get over how tall this tower is getting. I walked over the Brooklyn Bridge for the first time in my 33 years of life & I saw the tower Standing tall. It was such a nice feeling to see everything coming along & seeing the tower from the Bridge. I have alot of uploading & editing to do tomorrow. Need to get my new stuff up A.S.A.P. This was easy.

[LegoMyEggo100]

The paint feature really shows the buildings great progress.

[IntoTheLens827]

@LegoMyEggo100 Yea, I am into it! Love to see it with the lines :-) I saw someone else do that when the tower first started going up & then I got the idea of just doing an update like that. So now I do it every few months, but this was the first time I used it in a video. Worked out very well & I am glad you like it! :-)

[admx94]

Still can't get over how sexy it looks. Beautiful in its simplicity.

[ExorFILMS]

Atleast this is the latest experienced video yet about the tower as the date.

[IntoTheLens827]

@ExorFILMS This was the first "Kinda Live Update" of the tower since I did an actual video of the tower last Nov 14. I really love seeing the views count climb alot after I post (a live shot). Thank you :-) I will be posting my videos of the rebuilding soon. Please stay tuned. (I got alot coming from the past) :-)

[ExorFILMS]

@IntoTheLens827 Keep what you doing, Just as you may know the tower has rise to 70 Floors since this video.

[IntoTheLens827]

@ExorFILMS LOL!!!! I know LOL!!!!! I saw the pics on the tower Fourm & the webcam shots. lol. Yea, the new still had to go up just a few days later throwing my video off course. lol. That's ok. My video is just alittle off now. Can't wait to do another "Tower Update" in a few months from now. I can't wait to get all my other new WTC videos on here. I HAVE ALOT OF EDITING TO DO & clips to put together. They will be up as time go's on.

[ExorFILMS]

@IntoTheLens827 You should look at the New wtc at Google Earth! It updates its height and information two times a month! In the info it even say what floor it is.

[IntoTheLens827]

@ExorFILMS Oh, I def know about that Google Earth with the WTC site. I know it updates it self a few times but I never knew how often or even the Floor Count. I haven't looked at google earth in a while. I have to check it out now :-) I know it's getting highter & I love to get right on top of the freedom tower at the current height to see what the views are like at that point. The view are great now that it's past 7WTC. It's only going to get better from now on with the views! :-)

[ExorFILMS]

@IntoTheLens827 You live in NYC?

[IntoTheLens827]

@ExorFILMS I Am From Long Island, NY. (About 45 Miles away from Manhattan). (An Hour Away).

[admx94]

WOW, and its tall looking now.... can't wait to see it at full height. Everytime I'm in the city, I spend some time at ground zero. God bless

[IntoTheLens827]

@admx94 Yes it is! :-) She is really getting tall now. I can't wait either. I go to ground zero / the New WTC site to take pictures & Videos every few months & I always see a difference when I see the site. I try to take pictures & video from the same location to see the difference. The entire new WTC complex is going to LOOK GREAT when it is done. The 1WTC Freedom Tower is starting to show up in the skyline at every angle. I still miss the twin towers, but this is good that they are rebuilding.

[IntoTheLens827]

@CrashTestDuumy Almost There Indeed! :-) What a great tower this is going to be! :-) I need to get my other videos that I shot on here. Please stay tuned! :-)
