Omg, 4WTC looks like it's located in Jersey City, at least the upper half.

Perhaps they should ditch the spire and leave the nice white crane up instead.

Do you think that if the CTBUH comes back and says that the mast is not a spire that Durst will cough up the money to have the mast redesigned?

As much as I hope they count it as a spire, if they don't, I hope it gets redesigned.
