the original twin towers were there because they cost less to build that the rest of the proposals they had before they were built.
im sure the same will happen now with this.
im sure meier will get the job because it looks like it will cost less to build.

I like the Meier one at a glance, because it reminds me of the old WTC but it has added something that makes it stronger and more "aware". On the other hand, Liebeskind has done a great job with the Jewish museum and their proposals are always very well thought out. Tricky.
One idea I had was to make two black, windowless structures the same size as the twin towers but keep them as empty as possible inside. Imagine looking up in a "bottomless" space (it would be lit up). And imagine the cost!
