Six years of construction of the One World Trade Center has been condensed into a fascinating two-minute timelapse video.
Brooklyn based photographer Benjamin Rosamond took around 30,000 photographs of the 104-storey building from the day construction began in 2006 to the day when the final beam was laid in 2012.
He painstakingly compressed 1,100 photos to create the two-minute timelapse video which shows the 541 metre skyscraper emerging from the Manhattan skyline as the years pass.
The New York building, which dominates the skyline and is the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, can be seen from miles around.
One of the most visible, politicised and high profile buildings in the world, the One World Trade Center, which was built after the September 11 terrorist attack , lies on Ground Zero.
For years the site lay abandoned as authorities and victims' families argued over the design.
Eventually, a compromise was forged and the building was designed part memorial, part commercial centre and part transportation hub.
Once plans were agreed and politics put aside, the construction of the building, which is known colloquially as The Freedom Tower, stepped up. In the final two years of construction, a new floor went up every week.
And with it, came a robust security measures designed to withstand a terrorist attack on a building which has already been targeted twice in the past.
