You get to ride around in a giant robot?

They need to replicate the old towers exactly and move the UN and every foreign embassy into the top floors of both towers.

They should just a couple of giant rocket launchers on the top of the building.
That'll keep them terrorists away! |

What about We've Got The Biggest Dick Towers?

WHY exactly is that spire-thingy on there anyway? Is it just to add height? If so...that's lame.
If it was there to signal UFOs or something, that'd be okay. |

It's actually slated for 2013.
It's weird because the plan is for about 108 floors and they are putting a restaurant on the 101st floor. I don't see how anyone can imagine anyone wanting to go to that floor to eat. |

Is there anyone in the tower?

#1 is too purposefully haunting looking, #2 is boring
I like the rebuild the originals idea, and that will fix the skyline profile. Maybe they could hover above reflecting pools. Oh, and they should put in central vac this time. |

Have you people seriously not been in tall buildings since 9/11? Are you afraid to cross the fucking street too?
The sad thing is that they actually had a competition for the design of the site and this was really one of the better ones. Some of them flat out sucked. This is actually at least the third or 4th remodel to the original design. The first was much nicer but they have been forcing the architect to change it. I know he wasn't too happy with the last version so I hope he likes this one better. Probably not though. I bet he wishes he wasn't involved now. |

Well whatever they end up choosing, I'll still always think of it as a phallic symbol.

The important thing is everyone even remotely connected to someone that was lost that day, no matter how distant a cousin, gets input on the design.

I HATE the name "Freedom" Tower.
It's ironic, really, since we have less freedom since the big ole 9/11 excuse. |
