Members of the media photograph a hi-definition video feed from the top of One World Trade Center as a beam is placed becoming the tallest building in New York on Monday, April 30, 2012.  Workers erect steel columns raising the height to over 1,250 feet, a tad above the Empire State Building. When finished the building will be 1,776 feet, the third tallest building in the world.
