I always felt they should put it back the way it was, only with new infrastructure. Whether they build it or not, the "freedom tower" is a fucking joke. It's like "ok well the terrorists decided we shouldn't have the twin towers there, so let's just do as they ask and put something else there, something that might not offend them so much"
fark new york looks crazy man, I havent seen something like that in real life, all those 30s era buildings still standing with all the modern ones its like a mindfuck man.
More like Oppression Tower, since it will be the symbol of a new American Dictatorship.
the WTC looks like shit anyways. it's just 2 rectangles. If they do rebuild, they better come up with an interesting structure.
>>225What's wierd about that? Try going to any major European city. They have shit several hundred years old right next to modern buildings. 30s era stuff doesn't really look all that different to most modern buildings.

Meh, "Freedom Tower". I like the designs for 2 WTC and 3 WTC better.BTW, those are 175 Greenwich and 200 Greenwich in my pic.

The Spire doesn't look like that anymore. No antenna on top.
>>159USSR tower design doesn't look so good compared to the others... looks "chunky"...
Russia tower is a real beauty. Heres a better rendering.
The other tower with the tall spire is Federation Tower. It is probably 3/4 complete now.
>>199 Yep. Here is a current rendering of the Chicago Spire. Almost exactly the same height as Russia Tower.
