Logging you in...
Yes, One World Trade Center will be the tallest upon completion, but there are some things you should note about its height:
1) The original plan of being 1,776 feet tall included the spire being encased in something. Now it is a spire/antenna, the actual architectural height could be reduced to its roof height of 1,368 feet.
2) The Willis Tower's roof is still nearly 100 feet taller than that of One World Trade Center.
3. 432 Park Avenue, upon completion in NY, will have a higher roof.

btw lets all commemorate 9/11, which is tomorrow :)
let's just hope it won't collapse again in case the jerks from Al-Qaeda try to attack it again
I take it back, I do like the new center but the twins seemed so... Proud. Like they were always keeping watch over the city.
I still wish the twin towers II plan would have followed through. But I guess the 1% get to decide that.
It´s his opinion. That´s no reason to call him a nazi or a motherfucker.
fuck you nazi motherfucker,nyc is the best city in the world and you know that!
the cities in the USA aren't nice. High buildings are awful!! In Germany we have nicer citys (Munich, Cologne, Berlin...). The houses are wite and that makes the city bigger and nicer!
its good but it can never replace the real twin towers
I can't wait for one world trade center, 4 WTC and the 9/11 museum to be all done hopefully by the end of this year. Our nation is strong and we will not fear anyone who threatens us! USA! USA!

In a way this is making the USA alot better because twin towers went up twin towers went down but USA is showing the world that they wont give up and will never forget September 11 2001
If that same asshole came back and did the same shit, I will never visit ny again
Im gonna be so sad if the same shit happens again :((
this year guys 1 WTC WILL BE UP AND READY FOR PUBLIC THE NEW TALLEST BUILDING IN AMERICA HAHA! and wtc 4 is allmost finished 2 so thats good
If they're building a 5 WTC it needs to be a hotel.
Why doesn't the architect include some kind of escape mechanism from EVERY window, in case something like 9/11 ever happens again, people won't be forced to make the decision to stay and be burned alive, or jump to their deaths???
Waterboard Bush and Cheney, Rice, Rumsfeld, Silverstien, they have information. If they weren't directly involved, they were at least criminally negligent.

And the tallest in the u.s.a
Can't wait! That's gonna be the 3rd tallest build in the world!!!
Wow
There is construction in my shool they are to slow
F U TERROREST!!! WE MADE ANOTHER ONE
To bad the radome is gone from 1 WTC.
However, as nice and modern as the new complex is, any true New Yorker will always recognize the twin towers as the symbol of N.Y.
@Lianne Reinhart The twin towers were gone forever the minute they collapsed. It's just about time for you to let it go. Embrace the new wtc because believe me when I tell you…it's here to stay.
since the old towers were gone new york had an uncomplete skyline, the twin towers were like the space needle in seatle, the us bank tower in los angeles, like the sears tower in chicago (dont rember how it now called) the new towers will bring the skyline to new york
I have a better video ! Please watch it
Now now now break it up break up we're America we do things right give the people for rights in Liberty and justice
Silverstein, you piece of SHIT
The fact that the new WTC is taller than the old one is bad. Makes it an even easier target. I would have thought America has learned by now. But no. The people who decided to make this building as tall as it is are really really naive. This is very dangerous and i am afraid there will be people willing to challenge their terrorist skills. Wait and see.
It's the internet who cares about grammar.
First of all, 3,000 people died that day, and second of all, NOTHING you said proved me wrong.
And next time, try not to tell people their English is bad when you say "did killED", "American is rebuilding", or when you can't even tell the difference between "then" and "than".
Have a wonderful day realizing a non-american just beat your American ass at English grammar.
Let’s see:
1. > True they did killed about 9,000 to 8,000 people and about 2,000 people missing.
2. > American is rebuilding WTC from donations go over a billon around the world.
America always wins! He isn’t american. yes indeed we are the most powerful country in the world kindful then your shity country.
Note, you got bad english please delete your account.
Our world trade center is back! And much better than any other countrys world trade center.
Building another tower still means their is hope left!
We really don’t have enough money to be building this kind of thing…
