i was a kid when 9/11 happened and i had no idea what the twin towers were until i got older and did some research of my own. i never got to experience going to the twin towers myself nor did i ever remember them when i was growing up. the twin freedom towers need to be a reality, so that i can experience the towers that i never went to and for others who never got the chance to go see the original towers, and remember what they were.
i want to see the Twin Freedom Towers become a reality. so please make this happen!
I not only say I wish the twin towers were rebuilt or claim that they need to be rebuilt without backing those words up with actions. I’ve honestly never been to them nor did I even know what 9/11 was when it happened because of course I was young but oddly enough, I’m somehow attached to them ever since seeing pics of them & movies containing them in recent years as I’m now older to realize their significance.When we say rebuild, we don’t necessarily mean using the same outdated materials that were put into the original twins that led to their collapse. The twin towers rebuilding plan will ensure far more updated technology just as they used into the new one world trade center. The design features will meet modern standards in every as
Until there are twin towers hovering over the skyline of New York, we are defeated. Every time I see a period movie or re-broadcast of a period sitcom with the original twin towers in the background, I am sickened to my stomach. I believe every American will rest much better when, once again, we can look upon the skyline of New York City and see what we expect to see. The Freedom Tower simply cannot fill the void. Once might as well attempt to replace the Statue of Liberty with an obelisk.
I completely agree with the push to rebuild the World Trade Center. However I don’t like the design that is currently being implemented. I personally believe if we rebuild the World Trade Center of New York we need to do it the right way and the only right way I see are the Twin Towers. They stood as symbols of American Pride, American Culture and American Power. Now with them wiped out, New York just doesn’t look the same. I was only a child when September 11th occurred but there is to me something about the Twin Towers that evokes the majesty and beauty of what we can do. The Twin Towers may never stand again physically, but they will always stand spiritually in our hearts.
The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center are a major facet of retro pop culture, & should be rebuilt, especially since most older buildings that are demolished are not as fortunate. So many buildings in recent & distant history have been lost to either destruction, or the owner’s ignorance or negligence, leading to them being razed. It is awesome that some relics of the original Twin Towers are being preserved at the 9/11 Museum & Memorial, but since rebuilding them is possible, I think this would be a great opportunity to resurrect the Twin Towers, & further increase the already increasing gratitude & appreciation for the towers.
I was born the same year the twin towers were built 1971. I never got the opportunity to go in them but did see them from the air. I have always been fascinated with them and even more so now that this has gone by us. I would honorably walk in and being afraid of heights, go all the way to the top upon completion and be proud to say, I not only accomplished this dream, but got to see what once was and now is the landmark that should be… The new one world trade center is beautiful, but not what we(I) want… Please rebuild them…..
I can just say I wish I had the opportunity to visit the Twin Towers. They were so beautiful in their own unique way and people in high places need to realize that rebuilding the Twin Towers would certainly help heal a huge scar that still exists in every corner of the world today. Hopefully in my lifetime the towers will be rebuilt right where they once were.
I was young when this tragedy happened, but old enough to know what was going on. It affected me greatly and my heart and prayers go out for the familes that lost loved ones and close ones. I think that the towers should be rebuilt but stronger and higher. I myself would have loved to see the towers. I know now how special they were. Rebuild them!! I truly believe it will show that we are stronger and it would heal:) thank you and God Bless!
I believe the twin towers should be restored and show all nations that not even 9/11 can break us.
The freedom tower is a symbol of the governments freedom from popular opinion. it is a disgusting sight that honors no one. I believe the people who died that day would want us to rebuild bigger, better and stronger twin towers to show we will not be broken as a nation. They wouldn’t want four abominations to stand in the place of two symbols.
I was born in 1996, which means the towers fell when I was five. I was in Kindergarten at the time. Thus, I and millions of others grew up in what is called a post 9/11 era. I’ve never been to New York. I never got to see them, I hadn’t even heard of them yet. And so those terrorists have robbed me of a life with these beauties in the New York sky. I will never stand in the North or South towers of the WTC. But one decision from the birocrats in New York can change that, for all of us. Have you seen the movie Moonstruck? In it, we see this gorgeous moon (part of the story) and an old man comes into a plaza bathed in moonlight and out in the distance stand the twin towers, huge, tall, and comforting. It’s moving, and the Freedom Tower ju
The twin towers are our american icon &we can’t just replace them with a retarded mediocre tower that only makes us feel worse that terrorists destroyed our landmarks forever. We should rebuild and show that the landmarks that fell long ago are rising up from the dead, and being reborn, in defiance of terrorism, of what happened that horrible day. You definitely got my vote.
I WANT THOSE TOWERS BACK! Even though I was in my adolescent years and never actually saw the towers, I look at pictures of them on the interweb. I think, “freedom tower? there’s only one tower and the majority of it’s gonna be office space..” You guys got my signature.
The freedom tower doesn’t cut it. We want the twin towers
i think we should rebuild these two beautiful twin towers the same way they were before but taller,safer, and better. rebuild these towers!
