While it's nice to see something iconic going up at the site now and yes it is nice,to me,there will NEVER be anything that will replace those 2 fat,"in your face" towers. I don't hate the new 1WTC but,i'm sorry,they should have been re-built as was,perhaps 1 story taller.There,i finally said it. Shit they didn't even have to be the worlds tallest. Thats never been a bone of contention for me. I just miss the sight of them going up the Turnpike and don't particularly like hearing people badmouth them as having been monuments to banality.

Agreed. But 1 WTC is kind of a advanced version of the Twins. But then again, if I had a say in the redevelopment, I would chose to rebuild the towers we lost.
