The North Tower (1 World Trade Center) was slightly taller than the South Tower (2 World Trade Center). The roof of the North Tower stood at 1,368 feet (417.0 meters), while the roof of the South Tower stood at 1,362 feet (415.0 meters). Also, unlike the South Tower, the North Tower had an antenna/spire, so it stood at a total height of 1,727 feet (526.3 meters).

The Twin Towers were the tallest buildings in the world from the time of their completion in the early 1970s, until they were surpassed by Willis Tower (aka Sears Tower) in Chicago in 1974.
