NYC’s skyline is not the same without the majestic twin towers gracing it. We as New Yorkers hope that our elected officials will listen and do the right thing and rebuild the twin towers bigger and stronger than ever and show those who hate our great nation that we will never be defeated because we are NY STRONG!

The proposed design for the new Two World Trade Center is a joke and will look awful from anywhere except NJ. However, we should be rational enough to acknowledge that the old design will never be rebuilt – this is good as we should look into the future instead of the past! Nevertheless, a second twin for 1WTC is necessary as so many on this website have made clear already.

I was too young to remember when the towers fell down in 2001. When I learned about what New York used to be with the Twin Towers, I was stunned. Now as a young adult, I kind of wish the towers were still standing as I view them as beautiful landmarks that fulfill the NYC skyline. I just wish the 9/11 attacks never happened cause now I have to live in this new reality which sucks. The current 1WTC sucks as it only covers parts of that gap. It doesn’t feel even feel the same. I believe a solution to that is to build a second twin tower at the 2WTC but who knows. Twin Towers II would have been a perfect solution but it was those corporate sums that wanted their way and didn’t want to listen to the voices. I hope to see these towers in some way someday.

My heart has never been the same without those beautiful majestic towers. I always felt a sense of connection to them and now that they are gone I feel that New York no longer feels like New York. For those of you too young to remember you’ll never know how truly spectacular these towers were. You can’t replace an icon.

The greatest city in the world, the two most iconic buildings in it and more importantly the people who were affected by 9/11 deserve a true comeback.The only way to truly redefine lower Manhattan or NYC is to rebuild the twin towers or at the very least build a second freedom tower or 2 WTC.

We need to rebuild the twin towers. They’ll have fireproof elevators. It is America’s life. So let’s rebuild the twin towers.

Rebuild the towers, stone on stone.

For those that understand, no explanation is necessary, for those that don’t, no explanation is possible.

Just do it…

The new One World Trade Center, in my opinion, is not an icon but simply another skyscraper in New York. Worse, if you look at it from the right angle it tapers in a very ugly manner. I do believe that the Twin Towers should be rebuilt better, taller, and stronger. It would leave a lasting image if our country and city’s resilience, and honor those who died on 9/11.

That single tower doesn’t “symbolize” anything in my opinion. Except, well perhaps we ran out of money and couldn’t afford to build a second tower. They should have built Twin Towers from the start!

The Freedom tower is absolutely nothing. The Twin Towers made New York City period! The Freedom tower will not heal New York City’s skyline. The attacks stabbed a huge whole in everyones heart which is unable to heal if the Twin Towers can’t be rebuilt. We as Americans need to come back bigger and stronger.

I am touched by your efforts. You are doing a wonderful job of keeping the memory of the Towers and more importantly those we lost on that tragic day.

I’m proud to be in America. And I hope the towers are rebuilt.

I’m really proud to be a American citizen and I really want a chance to see the twin towers rebuilt in new york. It will respect the American spirit and those who died that day.

The Twin Towers were historic landmarks in the greatest city in the world. New York City isn’t the same without our Two Brothers standing tall and firm. As a memorial to all those lost I strongly believe the Twin Towers should be rebuilt. It shows the world that we’re courageous and we don’t back down. When we fall, we get back up. We don’t send someone else in to take our place (Freedom Tower). We will never get back all the innocent lives lost on that horrible gloomy day but we can honor them by showing them we will not be defeated. New York City is a brave city. Let’s prove it by picking our brothers back up and having them stand tall and proud once again.

The Twin Towers were the New York skyline, they are the iconic symbols of what makes America. They were taken from us along with many innocent lives. We cannot replace people nor can we replace icons. By rebuilding the Twin Towers we honor those we have lost, as well as honor all the brave men and women defending our freedom, showing the world our resilience in overcoming tragedy with rebirth and renewal. The Twin Towers were taken from us, they would still be here as the New York skyline had 9-11 not happened, as would the thousands of loved ones we lost. It is time and has been time we bring back our Twin Towers, moving on to our future by staying true to our past.

I wasn’t born in NY, however, I moved here in November 1993. I have lived in NY and worked here in the financial industry from ’93 to ’01; therefore the iconic World Trade Center was always in my view (as it was, for so many others). How many times I had been in an out of the trade center for interviews, meetings, drinks, shopping, etc. It truly became a staple for everyone. Imagine, if you will for a moment, losing Central Park and then the city officials replacing it with some condominiums and a small pond with a few trees; New Yorkers would be outraged! New Yorkers and fellow Americans deserve to be heard (it is and continues to be a NY staple) and treated with respect and compassion. The Twin Towers should RISE AGAIN and grace the New York skyline, once again!
