To install the spire/antenna the south crane will be taken down.

Oh I know that already, I was just giving my 2 cents since I wasn't registered here when that decision was made.

It is easy to forget that 7WTC, 4WTC and the entire WFC are all very tall buildings that would dominate most skylines. Then 1 WTC comes along and makes them all look tiny. I can't wait for 2WTC to be completely someday. Then downtown will be even more visually dominant.

Not to go off topic, but what is that addition (?) going up near the Trump Soho, maybe on Hudson street? I've seen it from a distance and wondered what the heck it was.
