New Proposed Design for the WTC

World Trade Website

No need to go into work somewhere at all

The tower wasn\'t attacked for its size, it was attacked for what it stood for.  It was a symbol of the US economy.

This is also true but it doesn\'t stop them from just changing to another target.

Either way it goes..the WTC needs..no HAS to be rebuilt, the reprecussions are obvious. They didnt hit it to take out ppl, they did it on a much larger scale which has taken in to effect, OUR ECONOMY!!!!! Size had nothing to do with it as far as structures, otherwise they could have hit the Sears Tower..Empire state building...John Honcock building..standard oil building..Trans-Americabuilding..etc..etc..etc...

I don\'t see why it is so hard to please you memorial people. It\'s not like a building AND a memorial cannot be done at the same time. Have you that believe otherwise actually seen that land??? No, I don\'t mean media pix either. The property the WTC towers stood on was VERY large, more than enough to accomedate(sp?) a memorial AND another large skyscraper or two.

Either way it goes, NYC HAS to rebuild another large building to take care of business, not just to say "look, you cant stop us" but to continue our usually properous economy. No way around it, the offices are needed, and there is no other feasible location for them to go.

I agree with you 100% luckee. You made some very good points that I have been trying to point out. We need a new place for world trade and no matter where it is, they would be a target. If they were in Indonesia, terrorists would still take it down (or attempt). We have the technology to rebuild the Twin Towers to withstand a 747 hit. We should just go ahead and do it. It would be a new symbol. A symbol of hope, a symbol that we will not take this attack standing down. A symbol that we are united. And finally, a symbol of world trade. I don\'t think we should just replace it with anything. Then it won\'t be a symbol of what I just said. It will just be a symbol of world trade. It will just be a new building in Manhatten with a memorial.

It\'s looks kind of bulky and out of place. I certainly hope that building won\'t have that green tint when finished. Looks very ugly with those grey buildings around it... This building should either be black or grey, just to match the other buildings.

We wouldn\'t want a green bulky thing sticking out of our beautiful city now, would we? Hopefully, this concept will evolve into a much more sleeker building.

The architecture is that of a Chinese temple or something.

I think they should just design it so it looks like a giant ass....then again that might be just asking for a plane right up the asshole.
