What the WTC meant to me as an Australian:They symbolize not only NYC but the United States, the uniqueness and history with these majestic structures are something that is nowhere else in the world, since Philippe Petit’s 1974 stunt: performing acrobatics on a thin wire strung between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, to George Willig who climbed the South Tower of the World Trade Center on May 26, 1977, to King Kong and the many movies for which they were a back drop.
They are iconic in every sense. Donald Trump & architect Ken Gardner offered a plan to rebuild them taller and stronger but their idea was ignored. To rebuild would show the world America can’t and won’t be beaten, yet what is there now is the opposite…

the twin towers were the tallest in the world, a city like new york that has always had the tallest buildings can not afford to stay behind, the new wtc symbolizes fear, a building that represents nothing to the twin towers and that does not reach being the tallest building in the world, they had a lot of office space, the one wtc seems like a shame, the twin towers symbolized freedom, originality, pride, having two towers of inspiration for many movies, like spiderman for example, were much nicer than what they have done now, New York need have the new twin towers, the tallest towers in the world again!

We made the One WTC 6 floors shorter than the twin towers? Why? I don’t know. The new twin towers will be 112 stories tall! I think if we wanted to build a symbol of healing we would build a taller building. Right?

I’m not sure if this is still valid or not, but I guess that people like me will keep on dreaming. I have always been inspired by the Twin Towers, by their architecture and their beauty – that almost innocent, but immortal beauty, which only simple shapes can have. I used to consider those two buildings the pinnacle of the architecture of our days. An architectural heritage to the world, like the pyramids in Egypt from another era.
I’d love to see the Twin Towers rise again, like a phoenix bird who rises again from its own ashes to defy death and destruction – as a symbol of immortality.
Let the Twin Towers rise again like two phoenix birds who defy destruction, to convey the message of the immortality of our civilization.

I was born 6 Months after 9/11. I kinda missed out on seeing them. I want nothing more but to witness the Twin Towers again. If we don’t rebuild them we are letting the terrorists win and we can be defeated. The World has gotten worse as we know it ever since 9/11 happened and the Twin Towers NEED to be restored. Without them, there’s no hope. It may take some time but I have faith they will be rebuilt and I will help ensure that happens.

It would be great for me to visit New York and the twin towers. When they collapsed I was 5 years old. I remember how long these terrible images were shown on TV.
New WTC complex as if from another world. It suits Dubai more than New York. Therefore, I only for the restoration of the twin towers!

The Twin Towers were the most remarkable icon of New York. The new World Trade Center looks like it’s from another world. The new building doesn’t fit in comparison with the rest of the city. Give the people what they want. Rebuild the Twin Towers. We will never forget, even the people from other countries.

Tinha 5 anos e lembro exatamente deste triste dia, do dia em que a América e o mundo pararam. Creio que foi um erro o que fizeram com o local do WTC, deveriam e devem reconstruir tudo como era antes, dedicando um andar todo ou mais, das torres para homenagear as vítimas. Mas o antigo World Trade Center, suas torres e seus outros prédios deveriam voltar. O One World Trade Center é lindo, mas não naquele local. As torres e todo o WTC tinham um poder simbólico inigualável. Volte World Trade Center, por favor, como a Fênix que renasce das cinzas tão forte como antes.
Translation: Had 5 years and I remember exactly this sad day, the day that America and the world stopped. I believe it was a mistake for what they did to the site of the World Trade Center, should and must rebuild everything as it was before, dedicating an entire floor or more, of the towers to pay tribute to the victims. But the former World Trade Center, its towers and its other buildings should go back. The One World Trade Center is beautiful, but not at that location. The towers and all the WTC had a symbolic power. World Trade Center back, please, like the Phoenix reborn from the ashes as strong as before.

Yes, I was born in 2001, precisely in February, when they still shone high in the sky. But I was obviously too small to see them, this does not mean to have forgotten them. In fact I’ve always grown up remembering them and seeing them as an icon of the New York skyline. I know it will seem strange, but it is one of my greatest desires, and I do not think to speak only in my name, that of being able to admire them in person, huge, side by side, built as only the American skyscrapers can be. In a word “impressive”.
I hope with all my heart and soul that my dream is realized.
I apologize if my English is not one of the best.

I have always been in loved of the twin towers. I always thought the twin towers, symbol of USA must to be re-built! The re-built would be a sign of love for the country and for all those who lost their life the 9/11.
It would be a dream to come in NY one day and seeing them!

What is Paris without the Eiffel Tower? What is Egypt without the pyramids of Giza? What is China without the Great Wall? What is Berlin without the Brandenburg Gate? What is London without Big Ben? What is Havana without El Morro? What is Rio de Janeiro without Christ the Redeemer?
What is Washington without the White House? What is Los Angeles without the Hollywood sign? What is Chicago without the Sears Tower?
What is New York without the Twin Towers … like a human being without soul and without memory?!!!
Rebuild the Twin Towers now !!!

I was born in 1999 but didn’t see them really because i was too young, i’ve never had any chance to visit it and only recently started thinking about it. While NY has other things the twin towers really stood up. at least make a twin of the freedom tower or rebuild the twin towers. They looked very much like something of 20th century and I’m pretty sure a lot of people from all over the world would visit NY just to see the new twin towers!

I really don’t think I can add anything that hasn’t been said already, but… bear with me, maybe I can.
I’m Italian.
Now, imagine if somebody blew up the Colosseum.
How would you feel if we neglected to rebuild it?
Because that’s what we did when the bell tower in Piazza San Marco was destroyed: we rebuilt it brick by brick, and now thousands of people – tourists and Venetians – can admire it in its rightful place every day.
That’s what we did when WWII destroyed Palermo, Catania, Siracuse and Naples. We rebuilt most of the landmarks, with our bare hands (and some help from our American friends, of course).
A lifelong dream of mine is to visit NYC.
And in my dream, when I come, there’s the Towers…

The Twin Towers were a symbol of NY architecture, freedom, and economic power. They were amazing in every possible way! I visited them as a kid and would love to see them again. With the rebuild of the Twin Towers based on Donald Trump’s proposal back in 2005, greatness will be restored in Lower Manhattan. New York deserves to have the Twin Towers back, and so does the rest of the world.

Twin towers were such a treasure to the New York and to the USA. I think that they made a mistake for building a new “better” WTC, instead of just rebuilding the old ones. Oh, they we’re so beautiful, and so magnificent!

I became obsessed with reading about those towers previous year. I am still obsessed with them. I am very sad they are not there. Just came from NYC last week. Was looking at the 1wtc, and boy, the twins are missing. It was interfirring to the eye! I hope one day they will be rebuild. Lets try bring that day.

As a Norwegian/American living in Norway who has never been to NYC, I was sorely saddened when the towers fell. And now I’m hopeful that they will be rebuilt once again restoring greatness to lower Manhattan once again. The current skyline is not the same and not impressive whatsoever anymore. The original WTC 1 & 2 were amazing in every way possible and there were two of them! Even though One World is there, we can just build the Twins even higher! And not in glass! Let’s build them back! Yeah!

New york autorities can build twin towers in other location nearby the current wtc towers to avoid any destruction or complications with newly built Towers in grand zero. Thats the only solution. Please accept my solution to once again new york city can shine in the world of architecture and have the globally reknown skyline with new twin towers and current wtc towers together. Thanks so much and god bless america.
What the WTC meant to me as an Australian:They symbolize not only NYC but the United States, the uniqueness and history with these majestic structures are something that is nowhere else in the world, since Philippe Petit’s 1974 stunt: performing acrobatics on a thin wire strung between the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, to George Willig who climbed the South Tower of the World Trade Center on May 26, 1977, to King Kong and the many movies for which they were a back drop.
They are iconic in every sense. Donald Trump & architect Ken Gardner offered a plan to rebuild them taller and stronger but their idea was ignored. To rebuild would show the world America can’t and won’t be beaten, yet what is there now is the opposite…
