Ground Zero/WTC (digital)

Made another walk with my view camera down to Ground Zero/WTC. Construction continues mostly below ground focused especially on the transportation infrastructure. WTC 7 is the only finished building that replaces anything lost on 9/11, but eventually new towers will rise from what is still a giant hole in the ground.

There is still no good place for tourists and visitors to advantageously view the entire WTC site. As a result, people wander about picking their way through a maze of fences and barriers. The ill-fated Deutsche Bank building remains shrouded in netting, but is slowly coming down.

Note: Thanks to Blogger being down again for uploading to ftp blog sites, I accidentally overwrote my last post. I’ll try to re-up those photos later. Blogger’s poor performance has greatly tarnished my previously high esteem for Google, the company that offers the service.
