Much like the 3D experience of a New York City stereomap, those at 1 World Trade Center have recreated a time lapse of lower Manhattan's skyline from 1500 to the present day that plays when traveling to the top of the building. This is the view from inside 1 World Trade Center's elevator that takes you up at 23 mph to the observation deck. The walls of the elevator are made up of nine 75 inch HD monitors to display the 3D simulation you see in the video. The video may be the best way to experience this feature as to do so in person and to access the observation deck costs the low price of $32 per person. Check out the full story in this New York Times article.
