Trippy. Reminds me of Tatlin's Tower...




I seriously hope this is a joke. WTF is Tricentennial Partners? I assume it's some kind of joint venture set up specifically to make this bid, because it turns up no hits on Google. The name is kind of a giveaway too. Without knowing who the partners in the JV are, I can't assess whether they have the necessary experience or not.

One of the other two bidders is Gatehouse Capital, which seems like a pretty experienced operation. They only do hotels, so we'd likely end up with a Sheraton or Marriott-sized hotel on the WTC site. The architecture would probably be pretty uninspired too.
