final freedom tower design... seriously
Posted by ryan at 08:28 PM in urban . | 8 Comments
Over a year and a half ago the "final design for the WTC site was unveiled"... or so I thought. Today a new "final design" has been unveiled. If you ask me, they should stop unveiling and start building.
If you want to see the Freedom Tower on your next trip to New York, make sure to plan your trip after 2010. In the meantime, I'd visit the Burj Dubai, already under construction.

Looks cool, though I wish they would just rebuild the WTC towers. Only taller. I just think they made the NYC skyline seem complete. Posted by: jt at June 29, 2005 8:42 PM |

Yeah, I agree. Donald Trump agrees too. He tried to push the idea a couple months ago. Posted by: ryan at June 29, 2005 8:48 PM |

Yeah, a huge memorial like that should be built somewhere, but the building's investors in the end do have to make a profit. I don't think going to work at the *NEW WTC Towers!* every day would be a morale booster for your company. Something different is probably essential. Heh, but it is kind of interesting -- the most valuable real estate versus the most valued memorial. Posted by: polamex at June 29, 2005 9:22 PM |

I have to say that I hate the name "Freedom Tower". It just seems cheap somehow. Posted by: Emily at June 29, 2005 9:42 PM |

I hope they serve freedom fries in the food court. Posted by: ryan at June 30, 2005 12:06 AM |

Emily, I don't know if you realize this, but freedom isn't free. It costs $1.05. Posted by: karen at July 7, 2005 12:44 PM |
