A crane hoisted a U.S. flag covered spire to the top of New York's One World Trade Center on May 2. The spire's temporary home will be a platform at the top of the trade center. When it's fully installed, it will soar to a symbolic 1,776 feet, making it the tallest building in the Western Hemisphere, though still well short of the world's tallest structure.
