Workers complete spire on New York's One World Trade Center
NEW YORK (Reuters) - Workers cheered and whistled as they completed the spire on New York's One World Trade Center on Friday, raising the building to its full height of 1,776 feet (541 meters) and helping fill a void in the skyline left by the September 11, 2001 attacks. The spire makes the building the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, 47 feet (14 meters) taller than Chicago's Willis Tower, though it is substantially shorter than towers in the Middle East and Asia. #facebook #United States #India #Brazil #Middle East #markets #Argentina #Mexico #opinion #lifestyle
