The rebuilding of the Twin Towers is what most Americans want, especially New Yorkers. Why are the powers that be (the ones in charge of the rebuilding process) ignoring this? The Freedom Tower is not a symbol of America like the Twin Towers were…it’s somebody’s art project, and could never take the place of those magnificent buildings. Freedom Tower (and the surrounding buildings that are going to go up along with it) would look better off in the Hong Kong skyline…not in NYC!
I think the Freedom Tower sucks. It doesn’t give America the glory it deserves. I was eight when 9/11 happened and I always wanted to go on top of the Twin Towers. The Freedom Tower is taking that dream away from me. Plus, how many other generations have to grow up without the Twin Towers. It’s a disgrace. The new Twin Towers are better in every way and it would make America whole again. Also I don’t want to see a big hole in the ground at every 9/11 anniversary.
its time to reclaim new york’s skyline and rebuild the twin towers instead of an ugly freedom tower……… the reason they might not build it is because the the man that proposed the idea is black and the man who proposed the freedom tower is white……… u do the math……… i want the towers back!
Building The Twin Towers Two i think would be a good choice because first of all its the best design and when you think of NYC’s skyline you think of two towers that rise above all others. I think building this would pay great homage to Minoru Yamasaki, the architect behind World Trade Center. Also so many people never had the chance to experience standing1,368 ft above lower Manhattan. So I really hope that Twin Towers Two gets built because two towers is way better than just *one*.
I agree the Twin Towers should be restored not only to prove American strength and endurance but to also make New York City, New York City again…. GOD BLESS AMERICA!
What was taken away from us on 9/11 should be restored as a symbol of perseverence and pride. It should honor those who were lost, and inspire those who they left behind.
As a proud American, I can say that there would be no better act of defiance against terrorism and demonstration of America’s resolves than rebuilding the Twin Towers. Obama’s election has showed that a new spirit of hope and confidence is in America today, so I hope that new Twin Towers can be a part of the change we need and will go through.
There is no other way to rebuild this site than rebuilding the towers as close as possible to the originals. Please keep hammering away at the effort to replace the towers.
I was 10 years old when the towers fell. I never had the chance to see the towers. They need to be rebuilt they are part of history but not for that day every one now remenbers them becasue of what happend at 8 in the morning. I was in school when it happend we did not know to the full extent what was going on. But i will say this the towers mark NYC as much at the stague of libirty does. They are a landmark and if rebult would be a becon of hope for a contury still in its dakest days.
It seems like a blow to the entire nation to lose our tallest building and then see third world countries go on to build their own taller buildings. They should build over the original site and simply include part of the orginal structure as a memorial in the basement. Build them taller than they were originally and use external bracing such as the Hancock building in Chicago has. This would put the strongest part of the building on the outside. Mild tapering would increase the strength.
I said that day that the RIGHT thing to do is re-build the towers. THAT sends the message!! I love the new design. I saw it today on MSNBC and it gave me an overwelming feeling of joy.
I’m so excited about this! This has to happen! They must do this! Yes, they’ve already spent one billion in the reconstruction of the freedom tower, but only the preparation stage. It would be worth scrapping it anyway. It would do so much for America’s pride.
Dammit! This shouldn’t be a debate! Scrap the Freedom Tower… Build that in Philadephia! The Twin Towers belong in NYC.
There is no question. There is no other design that should be built as the focal point of the site then the Twin Towers. One large tower surrounded by smaller ones just doesn’t seem right. Stronger, Taller!
The Towers need to be rebuilt to deprive the terrorists and all other holders of their mindset of a tangible legacy of loss.
God will work with the human loss according to his plan, but it is up to the citizens of the United states; the target, to bring-about the myriad untold benifits that ‘complete’ rebuilding will bring.
Our country still owns the accomplishments of our past-realized dreams . Since this loss is one shared by living and dead alike, claiming that ownership is now our duty.
I think these towers should be rebuilt, since they were and should always be the center of NYV skyline. I think that by building another type of structure aka the “Freedom Tower”, you will not only be depriving NYC from having its glorious skyline, but you will also take away NYC international symbol. Please do not build the freedom tower, and rebuild the twin towers bigger, and safer, that ever before.
With all that we’ve been through in the last 8 years it’s time we, as Americans, do the right thing. Let’s rebuild the Twin Towers and not a replacement building.
We rebuilt Europe’s Historic Buildings after WWII. Why shouldn’t we rebuild our own?
We know the Eiffel Tower or the Tower of London would be rebuilt under similar circumstances. The Junk Design of the Freedom Tower is an insult.
The American Spirit means resiliency in the face of adversity. The Twin Towers symbolize our Strength and Leadership in the World we’ve lost in recent years.
We deserve the same treatment that Europe and other countries get when their Landmarks are destroyed.
I am Mario Trotta and I’m from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. We must rebuild the twin towers for a new rebirth of defiance and bold spirit that sends a message around the world. This is our chance. I can remember going to New York City and seeing them. The Freedom Tower does not represent our pride of the American Spirit. It is a disgrace to the American People and very disrespectful to many 9/11 families. Some officals are out of touch with America. Defend America and Rebuild the Towers!!
I am concerned, that “America” has lost something. Something that was there in the beginning of this great nation. Did we let it slip away, while chasing false dreams? We are Americans. I would not want to live in any other country but America. Let’s all find what we have lost, and bring it on with a Passion.
I strongly feel that the Twin Towers should be re-built. I have never been to Manhattan but I know the towers were a strong symbol of America. You would see them in movies, magazines, etc. But now, nothing, and it looks so weird. All of the unfortunate victims that were taken from us that day would want the same. Build the towers, show your pride!!!!
The twin towers should be rebuilt to send a message to our enemies that we are not shaken or intimidated by their doctrine of hate. The towers are also symbols of New York and America, anything else would never look right in NYC.
It’s not NYC without em’.

Bring back the towers and show everyone America is strong and can come back from a devastating tragedy.

It needs to be built again! Please!!
It’s time to rebuild America starting with the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center.

For once…. I agree with Donald Trump!!! LET FREEDOM RING!!!!!!!!!!!!
I would love us (America) to rebuild the towers bigger and taller so that the world could see that we will not fall.

Please rebuild the Twin Towers, the Freedom tower is a hideous joke and a symbol of corrupt leadership.
The freedom tower does not do justness to America. The towers were internationally known symbols, and they shall remain so!
With all that we’ve been through in the last 8 years it’s time we, as Americans, do the right thing. Let’s rebuild the Twin Towers and not a replacement building.
Rebuilding the twin towers would not only show that America can’t be destroyed but it would also heal the wound in our national heart.

Rebuild WTC!!
The Twin Towers should be rebuilt 4 reasons
1. They rebuilt WTC 7
2. They rebuilt the part of the pentagon that got attacked
3. Donald Trump says its disgusting
4. 93% of us want the twins back and only 7% want the Freedom Tower

The first idea for rebuilding that’s made sense to me.
We should be rebuilding them each with at least 5 extra floors. However, it may be too late… what a shame!
