Bloomberg is running for mayor, and has been a big
friend to real estate developers. Something like that would make him instant enemies with the rest of the developers in town who have to compete against the WTC towers. The don't see the rebuilding as a response to 9/11 and restoring the site. They simply see it in terms of how it will affect their own bottom line.
