One World Trade Center Elf Jahre Bau im Zeitraffer von zwei Minuten - Eleven years construction time-lapse two minutes 27 November 2015

Eleven years needed architects and construction companies to build the new World Trade Center in New York . Now there is a video that shows the construction of America’s tallest building in fast motion. Impressive images!

The One World Trade Center originated in New York City between October 2004 and May 2015. Now the website Earthcam has released a video showing the construction in fast motion. For this, the video cronies have hundreds of thousands of pictures the past eleven years selected by hand and assembled into a video. The result is a fascinating sequence impressively documented the spec- tacular 541.3-meter-high building.

Since the topping-out ceremony on May 10, 2013, the One World Trade Center is the tallest building in the United States and the fourth highest in the world. Completed, it was the beginning of November 2014 and immediately obtained from the first tenants.The Condé Nast publishing house has 25 floors, for example, and thus about one third of the skyscraper - the floors 20 till 44 are reserved for the approximately 2,300 employees of 19 magazines. “Vogue” -Chefredakteurin sits on the 25th floor, “Vanity Fair” founder Graydon Carter in the 41st floor.

In addition to the publishing house, which has leased its floors for 25 years, are now, for example, even China Center, which aims to promote economic and cultural exchanges between China and the US, as well as various US agencies follow.

So slowly you return to this historic site back to normal. The terrorist attacks of 11 September 2001, the two towers of the original World Trade Center were destroyed. 2,602 people lost their lives in the “Twin Towers”. At that time it was decided to erect a building with a symbolic character to fill the gap and to set an example.
