Nobody said that there was something wrong with the NY skyline pre 9/11. And isn't broke? Really?
And wow, really, do you really think that redesigning the entire complex won't cost more than what's being done now? They're started building foundations, the towers and the PATH terminal. Do yout think they'll be able to use the cores of 1WTC and 4WTC for those "new" twin towers? What about all the new permits the developers will have to request? The millions of dollars to do land survey's and reorganize the entire masterplan?
The new WTC isn't being built because we want to stick it to the terrorists. Sure we're building a memorial and 1WTC is the height of the North Twin Tower. But this new plan is mainly business. Silverstein and the PA aren't out to say "fuck you for destroying my towers"
I guess you guys also believe that 9/11 was an inside job? Right? It only explains why the terrorist knew where to hit.
Where's NYGuy when you need him?
