Hi all.

1. Yeah topped out is roof
2. I don't think that's happening until late next year or early 2013? Not sure, hopefully it ends up being sooner
Hi Pat.

Topped out is when it has reached its full height both structurally and architecturally. Since this project has a spire it won't be topped until that is erected.

:cheers:

*The following information was last updated on December 22, 2011

Facade installation is now above floor 63
Tower steel is now above floor 91. It is expected to top out by appx. April of 2012.
Installation of the 400-foot-tall antenna in spring 2012. :cheers:
Concrete is now being installed above floor 84
Ray, according to this (and any update I've ever seen about 1 WTC), topping out has always referred to the completion of the building to its roof height.
