"The planned broadcast tower atop
One World Trade is expected to
bring in more than $10 million of
rent per year."

^^ I am not sure if apparently this is the new rendering?

(Whereas the previous CURRENT renderings have a white spire).

Thank you for your note about One World Trade Center.  The decision to eliminate the Radome was not made for financial reasons or even aesthetics. We eliminated the Radome because it could not be maintained or serviced.  Radome simply does not work on the spire of One World Trade Center.   The Spire will be lit with LEDs, have a beacon on the top and look terrific.

Best,

Jordan Barowitz
What kind of bullshit is this guy trying to accomplish? A skinny antenna with christmas lights as opposed to a grand spire with a beacon will look "terrific"? I don't see the logic in it. If they don't have maintenance or service for the radome right now, just wait for it! Most of the new WTC is mostly delayed anyways. They don't have an excuse to rush now because they should have gotten this done years ago.

Looks as if that picture could be what the new spire will look like.
Looking at the orginal picture.

Found that picture on another site it looks like the same white radome just bronze colored. But i don't think this is a rendering of what they are doing.

That's nothing like they are trying to do. Seems one of the bozos from Durst just found an earlier rendering of 1 WTC and spray painted the spire. Hopefully, this means that this retarded plan doesn't come to life.

I say it's time we take it to the streets with signs outside their little office. They want to ignore us, and we need to show them that isn't going to happen.

And I am sick of Durst giving every single person the same reply... They are just showing that all they care about is their own statements.
Just curious but how old are you?

I've started a Facebook page in order to help spread the message about the spire. Be sure to share it with as many people as you can!

I also started a petition.

So have we confirmed that those renderings I posted were the ones by Durst? (BTW, we need to come up with a silly little nickname for them, seeing that Durst isn't our friend)

Those renderings are from a much older version of the spire and communications ring -they haven't been recolored, that was the previous plan from around 2005 or so... NYguy could probably confirm that...
