A Sikorsky S-61 helicopter installed the final elevations of Chicago’s Trump Tower today. The building now stands just shy of being the tallest building in the United States but manages to grab the #2 spot.

The Chicago Tribune has some great reporting on the installation as well as a wonderful time-lapse of construction that begins with demolition of the former Sun-Times building. There is also a graphic detail of the spire that was installed today.

Another beautiful building for Chicago’s impressive skyline.
