The base of One World Trade Center has been lit up before, showing solid panels of light for events like St. Patricks Day and the Fourth of July, but this is first time we have seen it display a more complex image: an American Flag.

Look what 1 World Trade Center can do! “It was the first time they lit the base with a pattern as opposed to a block color,” says Doug Smith, who took the photo last night. “It was obviously a test, since it only lasted for a few seconds, but it looked pretty crazy!”
