Earlier today, Jordan Barowitz, the Durst Organization's director of external affairs, snapped a photo from the top floor of 1 World Trade Center, which his firm is helping the Port Authority to lease. The view from the 102nd floor rather reminded us of a certain iconic magazine cover.
The space, by the way, is still available for lease, for those so enticed.
Speaking of the top of the World Trade Center, last week, while the rest of us were busy hustling out of town for Thanksgiving, some pieces of the spire that will crown the city's tallest tower (for now) set sail on a barge from Valleyfield, Quebec, where they were fabricated. It's the first real look at the spire in real life, and those steel beams sort of forces the question: is that really anything more than a glorified antenna?
