The Tallest Building in the United States of America

The newly completed World Trade Center http://www.wtc.com/about/, in New York City, is officially listed as the tallest building in the United States, at 1776 feet, symbolic as a number in the history of the United States.  The World Trade Center is built on the site of the the September 11, 2001 attacks in New York City. http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nation/2013/11/12/world-trade-center-tower-willis-tower-largest-us-building/3504515/.

The World Trade Center displaced the the Willis Building http://www.wtc.com/about/ in Chicago, that stands at 1730, as the tallest building in the United States. This building is "the Old Sears Building http://www.aviewoncities.com/chicago/searstower.htm" renamed and renovated.
