They should build a skyscraper in the shape of a penis in a state of semi circumcision.

that site should only be a memorial ..... no skyscrapers

don't make shorenstein mad

Opposite of what Rasko said.
Not rebuilding is what Osama wants. The best way to heal is to make use of that area. A memorial will happen anyway. I like the desigsn, but I'm not sure why the four little brothers don't look related.

Exactly my thought..it just looks thrown together after all the whole rigamarole on design...

i don't want this to come off bad, but it probably will. i see if they build a bigger tower, it could easily be hit... again...
my 2 cents...

booooooooooooring.
If you build something so ugly and uninspired the terrorists win.

i like the final version of teh Shanghai WFC.. nice lines.

eh... it's not that bad?
i kinda even like the "f" tower..
is the diamond shaped building finialized? cause that could go. ...it's ugly and boring.
...and that park, not so much. i understand america loves to be a victim, but peeps are gonna have to live with it for centuries...
i dont wanna say the wtc families are selfish, but those footprints take up too much space...

one of those looks suspiciously like the luthorcorp building

From what I've read there's been intense ego battles among the architects & myriad government entities.

uninspired.
the buildings are trying too hard to both be contextual and "new" - thus dulling them significantly.
and i'm still pissed that david childs kicked libeskind off the freedom tower project.

whatever, in 100 years they'll just tear it down and build something else. that's what they do there.

leave it the way it is now on the surface, put the new stuff underground
- rasko40
but Rand, what if Al Qaida have developed subterranean drilling machines of TERROR?!

I gotta say in America architects can fuck up building really really well. UGLY!
