  1. Let’s do it!

    Politicians seem to have no qualms spending money on everything else. This is important to us, and to the rest of the world as well.

  2. I was 6 when our towers were stolen from us. I despise the new design, and would love nothing better than for them to be rebuilt. I want to dine in Windows on The World; I want to stand on top of the South Tower and stare down at New York City. If the Towers aren’t rebuilt, I and many other 21st Century kids will never have that opporunity. That’s not right.

  3. I am from Arkansas. I was in New York less than a month before 9/11. I chose to not go in the twin towers then and have regretted it ever since. Every time I go to New York now, I am constantly reminded that the skyline looks so bare without the two buildings. I am so sorry for all the lives that were lost on that day, but, at the same time, I have looked over the designs for the Twin Towers 2 and I love them. I think it would be a perfect way to honor the people who died that day.

  4. I think the twin towers should be rebuilt because like others have said that will be a great way to show rememberance of the people who lost their lives in a very terrifying tragedy

  5. We sent men to the moon to honour President Kennedy, who was taken from us by an assassin.

    How is it we are incapable, with better tech and more advanced materials, to replace the Twin Towers,which were taken from us by means equally foul??

    We can’t bring back the lost people, but we CAN build d**n fine buildings to honour them, and our foreign friends are working on their own supertall structures.

    Seriously what the h**l, fellow Yanks, this isn’t rocket science!!

  6. A visual statement from all New Yorkers: after so many years, no construction. They will not let junk replace our Twin Towers. God Bless America.

  8. I was fortunate enough to visit the towers on a short vacation trip on June 30, 2001. It saddened me greatly to see them destroyed and the many lives lost. I have always believed that they should be rebuilt bigger and stronger than before. The current Freedom Tower plan is a wimpy alternative that would have nowhere near the visual and emotional impact of recreating the original structures. Why not do it the right way and create pride in our country?

  9. Please do the right thing. If the Eiffel Tower were destroyed by a terrorist attack, I am quite positive the French would rebiuld it without hesitation! So it should it be with the Twin Towers for all that love America.

  10. Rebuild the towers as they once were. They were a symbol of America and freedom and cannot be replaced by any other substitute. Rebuild them and show terrorists the towers are still standing.

  11. Rebuild the Twins. It can be done. It is not too late to stop this ridiculous “Freedom” propaganda based reconstruction… We as humans are not that stupid. We must Rebuild the World Trade Center in it’s updated incarnation. I would locate my New York Office of my protective services company there, regardless of cost. I live to see The Towers stand again, no greater memorial to those lost, nor to the unity (representation) New York is of all people of the world, could be built.

  12. We all should be able to see the towers as they were I never saw the towers in person so I say Rebuild the towers now!!!!!!!!!!

  13. I had read some where that the towers were completed in 1973, the year I was born. I have never known a day (until now) when the towers were NOT part of NEW YORK. I visit New York, I see them, I fly out of New York, I see them. Every time I traveled overseas, when I would return, I knew I was home when I seen them. We want our towers back.

  14. I can remember the day that the cowards of Al-Qaeda brought these towers down. I was 8 years old and in 2nd grade. All I can remember is turning on the tv and seeing people jumping oout to save themselves from burning. It was the worse thing I have ever seen. Please bring the Twin Towers back. R.I.P. to all the people who lost their lives on the horrible day.

  15. There is no other powerfull message than to show others how strong a country can be, and how they would hand-in-hand rebuild the towers. NYC would set a symbol for peace. As long the towers stood, there was peace, as they fell, there was War in Iraq, if they stood up again it will be a symbol for peace, a symbol for the whole world.

  16. I remember 9/11. It was horrifying. The only way to make America complete again is to rebuild the towers.

  17. I have resided in southern California for my entire life, and I can assure you that the vast majority of people here have been disturbed by the lack of progress coming from Ground Zero. We feel and recognize the frustrations of the people of New York City, and we realize that the current plan is unnacceptable. Feedom Tower does not even begin to approach a satisfactory resolution. We must rebuild the Towers. It is our responsibilty as American citizens to do so, for our kids and prosperity.

  18. america saw evil that day. the new design is shit. its not a very respectful way to honor all those who died. i say build the towers much bigger and much better with the same design and in the same exact place.

  19. As a former resident of the NYC metro area, nothing would make me happier and satisfied than the rebuilding of the twin towers, taller and safer than the original design. May I suggest 124 floors of office space, and “Windows to the World” on the 125th Fl. Please use my bail-out dollars to rebuild the twin towers!!!

  20. Rebuild identical towers only change might be just a bit higher. The longer the gap is there the longer the evil that destroyed them have a trophy on the skyline. Since September 11, 2001 I thought that anything less than restoration to the original would be a symbol of defeat for America and an insult to those who perished that day. To restore would be both an act of love and Patriotism. First consider this–II Chronicles 7:14.

  21. Would you leave the Statue of Liberty in rubble and build something else on her pedestal? Why put up a monument to terrorists… put the towers back!

  22. The Twin Towers and Building #7 should be rebuilt. I do not believe 2 jetliners could pulverize these 3 buildings. I believe the official story is a cover-up. Do I have the answers? No. I’m just sayin’….do your homework.

  23. hi my concern is to the board of the designers and commity of n.y.c . i think its a good idea to put the towers back and the monuments for the lost ones and the fallen, but i dont think u should post ur layouts or how tall it would be, let alone animated pics of the buildings. dont yall think thats a threat for them to attack us again. i have realatives that fought the flames and ones who fight for our country that is falling apart! i dont think you all should post it. we cant let our guard down.

  24. If passengers on Flight 93 had been unsuccessful in stopping the hijackers from crashing their plane into either the White House or Capitol Building, would we agree to any re-building effort that did not restore them to their original form? The Twin Towers, in their own way, were just as iconic as those DC structures.

    Re-build the Twin Towers better, stronger, and at least one floor taller. The previously proposed plan is an abomination.

  25. I will never forget the day those planes crashed into the WTC and I can bet you I will never forget the days those towers stood again. We can do this!

  26. I still remember the morning of 9/11/2001, I was glued to the Television I saw the planes go into the towers. I was not alive at the attack at Pearl Harbor, but it was a similar feeling the day of 9/11, I was engrossed with the telling the story of that sad day. It has been almost nine years since that took place. Over 3,000 Americans and other citizens of other nations gave their lives for our nation.

  27. I feel rebuilding on the site with anything less than two re-engineered Twin Towers is truly admitting defeat, that we are not resilient as a nation and as a people, and tells the terrorists that if you try hard enough you can beat us into submission. I can think of no better way to both memorialize the tragedy and collectively move-on as a nation than by rebuilding. Physically and architectural speaking, the most painful reminder of 9/11 is the absence of the Twin Towers.

  28. The decision not to rebuild the Twin Towers was as big of a disaster as 9/11 itself. Other countries are raising amazing structures (Burj Dubai), and the United States of America, the greatest country on earth, cannot build a new set of Twin Towers. It’s a national disgrace. We must not show the world we are weak. When they are raised it will do something the freedom tower never would… Never Give Up, Never Surrender… God Bless America!

  29. To build new versions of the towers is the best way to show the world that we (AMERICANS!) don’t give in to defeat. To build anything less would, in my opinion, label us as weak cowards. So re-build them bigger and better than ever and lets show the world that we are not weak and we will always be on top!!!

  30. Why Don’t they rebuild the Twin Towers In Las Vegas! At least Vegas Can Get a Building Built in less then 4 years!!! And have construction around the clock 24-7!

  31. Rebuild the original version of the towers, they were beautiful, and were the best representation of New York City. No one should ever change this, ever!
