I thought the original WTC designs were brilliant given the surrounding context, these simply aren't. Quite funny actually, the old tower design had a strong arab element in the facade - and the new proposed are by a devote muslim architect. Go figure

Zylka, I couldn't be happier if a devote Muslim were the lead architect of the rebuild. I would hope that that would simply infuriate Osama bin Hidin'lyka'coward. Maybe he'd give himself a heart attack in the midst of his anger...The cake is NOT a lie. It's so delicious and moist.

Times changes... I don't want the future to look like the "stone-towers" we have today. And btw: I like buildings that "just-doesn't-fit-in"This space is empty... or is it?
