Back on April 30 2012, One World Trade Center became the tallest building in New York. :hurray:

Awesome!

Still think we should have made it in the shape of a giant middle finger pointed at Mecca though.

I'm thinking a road trip to NYC to see it is in order. :yesnod:

I was up there a few times during the various stages of clearing and construction. Each time I walked by, the reality of what happened and the lives lost...its always got me emotional. The first time I went, it was all blocked and boarded up. I stood on the granite steps of a neighboring building and peeked over the fence and couldn't believe what I saw, how I felt and how big of a hole was left.

Paging Chuck A... would you be able to take and post pics of it from the higher floors of your building?

I still think it's cheesy that a spire on top of the building constitutes its official height though.
