  1. Really taking shape now - supposed to be halfway up but I think it's only 600ft.

    it is awe-inspiring...I look forward to the day when people can remember all of the good memories of their loved ones & not allow the bad memories to consume their hearts ~ 2013 will be here in no time & I pray this will restore the void with a beautiful building, adding to New York City's skyline.
