To tighten up benthamitemetric's and my case further, here is the evidence that the video Tony made reference to was indeed shot from the GM building at 767 5th Ave, New York City, NY 10153, USA.
Again, this is Tony's video (I am not embedding again to keep this post a bit shorter):

It actually has footage from two different cameras. From 0:00 to 0:14 minutes, we het this perspective:

and from 0:17 minutes to the end, we get this perspective:

In the next two images, I have drawn in the contours of three buildings that are seen in both angles:

Especially when you lool at the tall building behind WTC7 (which, I assume, is one of the WFC towers, but that's unimportant), it is obvious that the
second camera position is to the left (east) of the first position. So that camera has a better chance of capturing the east wall, right?
Now, to determine which camera position that is, let's turn to two truther pages and their repositories:
First, a video posted by Nathan Flach:
From this video, here is a screenshot at 3 seconds - augmented and original:

The yellow line is just a vertical under the gap between EMP and WMP.
It is obviously the very same camera. Even the marqee is the same. Nathan has this video description:

Secondly, turn to
http://www.911conspiracy.tv/7_WTC.html#CBS_GM_Building and scroll down just a little to the third video: "3. CBS GM Building". To the left there is a screenshot, which reproduce here with some contours augmented:

This screenshot is taken a second or so earlier, before the text marquee "LOWER MANHATTAN VIDEOTAPE" is shown (run the videos to see that I picked the moment for my screenshot when that text first appeared).
Again, obviously the same camera.
911conspiracy.tv has this description of the video (my emphasis):

CBS News anchor Dan Rather says, "It's reminiscient of those pictures we've all seen too much of on television before when a building is deliberately destroyed by well placed dynamite to knock it down." (

Shot from the GM Building, looking beyond the Empire State Building (at right). This footage was not included in
the NIST chart listing "
their 9 videos" used for detailed analysis (out of 16 available videos in their database). As a matter of fact, the "Camera 2" video was attributed to CBS incorrectly. See NBC Leaning Cam.
For best possible quality
download the rare mpeg2 (watch in HD playlist above) gleaned from the Tennessee archive (
Vanderbilt Univ., where hour-length recordings are 200 US dollars to rent), which explains the timestamp reading 4:23 PM instead of 5:23. The
online TV archive shows that CBS9 Washington switched from the studio to this camera moments after the event... then played the more distant CNN view. Perhaps this was because of the visible

A raw
NIST Cumulus file is missing, but the video does appear in release 28 as a LOW 352x240 resolution, SHORT 0:08 length. See 42A0314 - G28D19\fromCD_WTCI-138-I\WTC_7.avi
Shot from the GM building.
The address of the GM Building can be found at Wikipedia:

It is 767 5th Ave, New York City, NY 10153, USA, which "is bound by
Fifth Avenue and
Madison Avenue between
59th Street and 58th Street". And that's next to the SW-corner of Central Park, just as benthamitemetric has it in his map:
