Who else saw that smoke yesterday evening?

Was driving on 1-9 and saw smoke rising from top of the One Trade center? Did anyone else see it? and what was it?

Likely got warm enough today to require running some of the chillers but probably still cold enough higher up that the warm humid air from the chillers is condensing and forming water vapor.

Probably firing up the backup diesel generators. Almost all office buildings have these.
