Rock Center
ONLINE EXCLUSIVE: A 180 degree composite panoramic image taken from the 69th floor of One World Trade Center. The building now soars more than 1,244 feet and is a couple of weeks away from surpassing the height of the roof of the Empire State building. Expected to 'top out' in a matter of months, One World Trade Center will be the tallest building in the United States at 1,776 feet when the tower is completed.

first! :) seriously awesome! keep up the great work!
I dont friggin believe it - what a total idiot you are - you must be one of them @!$%#s that get their rocks off posting "first" at espn.com/streakforthecash, yeah your name even looks familiar - a true loser - but agree that this building is awesome
Love this view. Wish it was a 360% view, though. Thank you for posting this. Best wishes and prayers to all those working on this magnificent building.
I wish that the United Nations had been moved to that location and small churches, mosques and synagogues would fill the first floor. For those who have not been to the Brandenburg Gates in Germany (which used to block travel between East ans West Germany); you may be surprised that there is a non-denominational prayer room inside one of the buildings. It is always best to reclaim the freedom we hold true!!!
Beautiful view...beautiful new building...but let's get the U.S. out of the UN...and the UN out of the U.S.!!!
Right on topper. UN has been a majort horn in our backside. It is being administered by third world hoodilums . They want to keep their citizens hungry,scared,poor, and uneducated. that way the people are in constant fear of te government, when insted the government should fear the people.Yes get the UA out of the UN, & get the UN out of the US.
Yes, I agree, TopGun117 and papouz12. The US needs to get out of the UN and the UN must get out of the US!! The sooner the better! The more one learns about the UN, the more we need to promote its extinction!
"The Rising" takes my breath away and swells my heart with pride!
What an awesome view!
It makes me so proud to be an American..seeing this fabulous building bring made to replace the mess from 9/11. It is almost completely leased already, because America wants to support these efforts! And these efforts are being done carefully & with meticulousness by workers so full of pride & character that is producing the strongest,safest building anywhere! America is saying with this new construction to our detractors..."you aren't going to push us down. We will get right back up and get back to work"! What a GREAT COUNTRY! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!

By gosh...I live just south-east of Toronto and on a clear day I swear I can see those iron workers from my balcony upon looking toward New York.........Makes me think that building was built that high so the Pentagon could spy on Iran......LOL!
I live 25 miles north of NYC and I love driving towards NY just so I can see this amazing building in the distance! I give thanks to all those working to put this building together and I can't wait for it to be done! God Bless New York City and God Bless America!
Just a prayer (another of many I am sure have been made) that God will allow the angels to always protect and honor this glorious new building and monument to all of those who lost their lives and those working on the building and all the people in the future who will work and visit it! God Bless America!
What an Amazing view! I cannot help but smile looking at this wonderful view :) I am proud to be an American! I live & breathe New York & I cannot wait to view it in person.
It must be such an HONOR to work on the landmark. GREAT JOB GUYS & GALS!! :)
United we stand strong, and united we shall persevere. We are free people, but we must always remember that freedom is not free, it comes with a price. God Bless America, land of the Free.
What a wonderous place-N.Y.
This is THE monument !
omg; what a beautiful sight to watch it rise from the ashes of 9-01-11 thank everyone involved in this amazing rebuild of the towers that were taking away from us on that day that will never forget to all that have perised on that day god is with you now you are all safe and never forgotten.
Lived in New York until June 2002, watched towers come down from the Whitestone Bridge, lost several friends in towers, couldn't take it anymore. Whenever I go back to NY, I visit the sight, last time back was able thanks to friends to get into 7 world trade, up to the 40th floor to see progress, so emotional, to look down to see the footprints of the towers.
If this doesn't put a smile on your face and warmth in your heart...you're un-American.
Bless you all for working on this...just awe inspiring.
thank you, love this I live on the west coast and to be able to see what is going on and see this wonderful view, thanks again.
