One World Trade Center

Recently I started an exciting new job at One World Trade Center, and took a trip to the observation deck on the top floor. The coolest part of the experience were the elevators, which are wrapped with a video replication of the building of Manhattan–forests are replaced by skyscrapers as you rise into the sky. The views, of course are unparalleled–you’re looking down down at the skyscrapers towering above the financial district, with a sweeping vistas of New York Harbor to the south and Midtown to the North. I can’t lie–this place will forever be haunted to me, no matter how familiar it becomes, but it’s nice to see it coming back to life.
