The Height Committee of the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat announced that the building was the tallest in U.S., standing at 1,776 feet. The BIG DEBATE was whether or not the needle at the top should be considered a part of the rebuild or simply something such as a broadcast antenna. YES, without the tip – 1,368ft. Fun fact!
