Ultimately, if sea levels are expected to rise high enough, I see them building a permanent sea wall/barrier across the Narrows (with some kind of lock system for ship traffic) similar to the ones in the Netherlands, either in tandem with the BIG U or in place of it. Either way, Manhattan is home to such valuable real estate and so important to the national and international economy that I don’t see the city/state/federal govt. just letting it flood.
Anyways, back to the subject of 3WTC. I actually like it without the cross bracing on the main part of the tower. It relates better visually to 4WTC and gives sort of a more unified look to the complex overall.
