World Trade Center Proposals

I thought this was very interesting.

I like the Memorial Promenade. I think they should try to make that land as useful and important as it was before.

Kinda related, kinda unrelated. Whatever they do, they better not put all their eggs in one basket again.

I like the Memorial Promenade, especially since it has buildings that resemble the old WTC. While I think we as a nation need to move on, I think we can never forget.

I agree with JMUDUKE. If anything, it should be a memorial park.

Native New Yawka here.

I like the ideas, and I voted for option #6, the Memorial Promenade. I feel that the area should be rebuilt, with as much dignity and respect as possible. I know we cannot ask the victims or speculate as to what they would have wanted, but I know for me, I would not want that land to sit empty and let "them" win. Put something majestic and superior in that spot, let NYC rise again.
