Iron workers hoisted a spire onto One World Trade Center on Friday, according to Reuters, raising it higher than all other buildings in the Western Hemisphere and marking a historical day of rebuilding for the US after the 9/11 attacks destroyed the original towers.
The building now stands 1,776 feet high, according to the news wire, a number that represents the year during which America declared its independence from Britain.
