Renderings Released of Final World Trade Center Tower

The fourth and final skyscraper to be built at New York City's World Trade Center site plans to combine a respectful and adventurous design. Renderings of the building, designed by Bjarke Ingels, show a 1,340-foot tower that will appear almost as tall as One World Trade minus the spire.
