Answer

SPIRE

A spire is a tall, pointed structure that rises from the roof of a building, most commonly seen on churches and cathedrals. The word comes from the Old English word meaning a sprout or shoot, which perfectly captures its slender, upward reaching form. Famous examples include the spires of Notre Dame Cathedral and the Chrysler Building in New York.

Strategy Tip

Today's word uses very common letters, which can actually make it tricky since many words could fit the same pattern. When you have common letters confirmed, focus on their positioning rather than searching for unusual letters.
