The spire will complete the full 1,776 height of 1 WTC
With only one segment remaining, the spire atop 1 World Trade Center is on track for completion this month. The 408-foot-tall finial completes the tower’s full height of 1,776 feet, while work continues throughout the 1,368-foot-tall skyscraper. The Port Authority presented the latest updates to Community Board 1 on April 4th, noting that 55 percent of the building is pre-leased, and tenant floors are now being built out. Port Authority Assistant Director of WTC Construction Quentin Brathwaite added that fitout is ramping up at the “One World Observatory” on the 100th, 101st, and 102nd floors. Operator Legends Hospitality, which recently signed a 15-year, $800 million lease with the agency, will continue its interior work both on the upper floors and in the sub-grade public-entrance level. Construction also continues concurrently in several more areas of the iconic tower, most visibly on floors 90 and 100, where facade installation is substantially complete.
