Workers have installed the final sections of the silver spire atop One World Trade Center (WTC) on Friday, which brings the iconic New York City structure to its full, symbolic height of 1,776 feet (541 meters). The building is rising at the northwest corner of the site where the twin towers were destroyed in the terror attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. The area is well on its way to reconstruction with the 72-story Four World Trade Center and other buildings. The 408-foot (124-meter) spire will serve as a world-class broadcast antenna. An LED-powered light emanating from it will be seen from miles away. The building was already the tallest in New York City. With the addition of the spire, it becomes the tallest building in the Western hemisphere and the third tallest in the world.
