^Why not? Those are some rare renders of a pretty cool concept for a lobby. Honestly, that lobby is far better than what's been built.

Also, if you didn't want to talk about the Libeskind/Childs design, you probably should not have block quoted ALL of the renders.

I remember seeing a commercial years ago for one of those commemorative coins for 9/11. It had the twin towers on one side and the Freedom tower (old design) on the other.

It's definitely going to be pretty hard to do an imprint of the new WTC complex on coins.

I found this in SSC and decided to repost here:

LOL, or even responded to it. I think the design for that base was better than anything we have now.

Anybody else see the awesome helicopter night shots of the WTC site during the Jets/Panthers game last night? It looked really cool in HD.

I've never seen that design on the 2009 coin before. Looks pretty sweet! Were they ever considering that for tower one? (Without the top empty of course )
