We’ve shown you the fun graffiti inside 1 WTC and a Google Glass video of our trip up to the 90th floor. Now, here are still shots from our exploration of the site.

There’s a temporary landing on the 90th floor for the external elevator:

When the WTC site is completed, Fulton Street (shown here) will be extended to meet West Street:

When completed Greenwich Street will traverse the site, intersect the Fulton Street extension (below) and reconnect with West Broadway. Cortlandt and Dey will return as pedestrian walkways.
