Freedom Tower

The first steel columns for the Freedom Tower in lower Manhattan were installed on December 19, 2006, more than five years after the 911 events. Several 25-ton steel beams were erected with fanfare at Ground Zero marking the first vertical construction of the planned 1,776 foot tower at the former site of the World Trade Center Twin Towers.
