A little more perspective

The basilica’s construction account records the installed cross and completed tower exterior at 172.5 meters on February 20, 2026. It also says interior work continues in 2027 and 2028; reaching the top does not mean every part of the basilica is finished.

This is a dated construction configuration with the central cross in place. Construction cranes are excluded because they are temporary equipment. Older photographs with a lower central tower represent a different stage.
