All of those pics of the Twin Towers are D-Y-N-O-M-I-T-E!!!!!

I just wish that the towers themselves were never touched & left alone to stand proudly as they've done for almost thirty years!

it seems that freedom tower is not very popular. i'm interested in why this is, is it the design for the new project or the wish to have the old towers restored?

From what i have see i like the design for freedom tower altho i dont realy understand the need for the empty section at the top, but i realy like the memorial pools in the footprints of the old towers. everyone loves parks.

My major problem with it, is that it lacks the imposture (if thats a word) of the old towers. the old towers dominated the skyline, i'm not sure freedom tower does

everyone loves the old towers but shouldnt we accept what happend and move on?

I liked my towers just fine

everyone loves the old towers but shouldnt we accept what happend and move on?

Hello NYC forumers, I just have a small picture request.

Would you happen to have pictures of the WTC that blend almost perfectly with the night sky? Leaving only the lights in the building visible? Sort of like this (pardon my awesome MS Paint skills):



Thanks
