NEW YORK - OUT OF THE ASHES
New Yorkers, and I feel a bit like one in exile, can rejoice: 1, World Trade Center will top today a height of 1,271 feet, and reclaim the status of Manhattan's tallest structure, 21 feet higher than the Empire State Building. And once its outer shell is finished next year it will majestically stand at 1,776ft, just 400 feet taller than the WTC destroyed in 2001.
It must be a gratifying feeling for an ever increasing number of people around
Manhattan as the tower rises; a gaping wound ready to heal.
