I’m a former NJ resident. I still have some family up there and my oldest daughter now lives back there. I now live in Reston, VA, which is 25 miles outside of Washington, DC. Watched the F-16s fly overhead afterwards to protect us. When I graduated from high school in 1970 I obtained a job working in New York right down the street from where they built the original towers. What a site it was to see them going up in the air!!! Build them as they were! They were beautiful!!!
Put the towers back! That other plan is urban blight. The only right thing to do is return the skyline we ALL grew up with. The Freedom tower has nothing to do with greatness or freedom. It only serves to prove our transition from a world power to a bunch of cowards.
As an architecture student, I was not fond of the design. However that is not the point. From the moment I watched them fall, I believed they should be rebuilt to the exact same specifications as the originals. I still feel that way.
The isalmo facists are always carping about their holy sites being desecrated by the mere existence us ‘infidels’. Well to me, the Twin Towers were as an important a symbol of the city I love as any mosque is to those who seek to destroy Western Civilization. Building something other than the Twin Towers in Lower Manhattan is to say to the terrorists- You Won!
The Twin Towers were a symbol, not only of New York, but of America, they embodied some of the tenants of our nation. They should be rebuilt bigger and stronger then they were to show the world that we are still here and that we are not, were not and will never be afraid.
Please rebuild the towers. They were an American icon. When they were lost I felt as if a part of me was lost as well. The new design just does not cut it. Only by replacing the towers will we be even more united against the enemy again. Nothing can look as beautiful as the Twin Towers.
Build the towers just as they were only taller and station a couple of Marines on the observation deck of one of them with Stinger missles. Make sure they face Mecca while you’re at it.
God Bless the US our President, warfighters, firefighters, EMS and police officers.

A young Marine who joined up because of the terrorist attacks and needs your help NOW. Thank you.
Yes! Restore the Manhatten skyline exactly as it was
pre 9/11. What greater testament to American resilience than to rebuild the twin towers exactly as they were.
The Twin Towers should be restored to their former glory almost like the way that they were back in 1973 when the project completed. C’mon, even Donald Trump dislikes the current building plans. That alone should mean something needs to be changed.
The only lasting memorial to the victims of 9/11 – and to restore a symbol of who we are as a free nation – would be to rebuild the twin towers even stronger than they were before.
WE ALREADY HAD NUMBERS 1-7 WTC. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THE RE-BUILDING AND THE MEMORIAL CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED SIMULTANEOUSLY — JUST CALL THE NEW TOWERS 9 – 11 WTC.
Rebuilding as it was and maybe even a bit taller is the only response that is acceptable to show the world that the United States does not cower to terrorism.
I grew up on Long Island. I remember being at relatives in Astoria, & if the night’s lighting was right you could see the tops of the Towers. I remember standing up against the side of the Tower’s unique architecture and looking straight up in amazement at such a feat of engineering & construction. I remember taking my wife to the the top of the Tower. And I remember watching in horror & disbelief when the Towers came crashing down, my heart burst open that day, life has never been the same.
It is the only truly American way we can go. We are not sheep to be sheared and spat upon. Americans need this lesson in being American. Especially our kids. We may get bloodied in the battle but we get back up. This is not about arrogance it is about national character. We need to be reminded that God willing we can do anything.
In the 60’s when a lot of this incidious weakness began there was a ray of hope in it’s midst. It was the Apollo moon landing. This is our mission.
I agree let’s rebuild the towers as big if not bigger than they were before and restore the NYC skyline. Anything less is a disgrace that is showing the terrorist that they have won. Let’s notify the people in OUR government that it is they who must follow our will, and it is not the other way around.
Building anything other that the Twin Towers is dishonoring to not only those who lost their lives on 9/11, but to our brave military men and women who have sacrificed their lives in defense of our freedom and libery. Rebuild the Towers as they were!!!
Rebuild the Towers 100 feet higher than before! There is no better way to honor those who perished on 9/11. And no better way to make a statement to our enemies that the American Spirit can not be broken!
It’s the only right thing to do. It’s sickening to go into NYC and not see the towers. Show our strength again.
The same as the originals, only TALLER!
rebuild the same…only 1 floor taller. AND STRONGER

Rebuild the towers exactly as they were except add one more story to each.

REBUILD THE TOWERS!
Bring back the Towers to the Sky Line !
Yes, bring back the twin towers!!

I Love New York!
We think it would be the right thing to do.
The city is not the same without the towers. They are New York.

9/11 Never forget!
WE ALREADY HAD NUMBERS 1-7 WTC. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THE RE-BUILDING AND THE MEMORIAL CAN BE ACCOMPLISHED SIMULTANEOUSLY — JUST CALL THE NEW TOWERS 9 – 11 WTC.
buil 5 towers with the middle one the tallest
Just put them back. It’s the right thing to do.

Shame! why did we give in to the terrorists?

I saw these building fall, and I want to see them rebuilt 10 stories higher!

This should have been the first plan not the last option. Build the towers.
