The new towers will not be as tall as the old ones. Anyone here want to work on the 86th floor of a new tower? People might say they will, but it's going to be hard to find a company willing to fork out the money required to rent that office space after they ask themselves that question.
I like the idea of leaving the footprints of the old towers undeveloped, but I also like the idea of building two (smaller) towers similar to the old ones as well. Hopefully the final design will have both. None of these do that.
You have to leave a memorial of some sort. Similar idea as the USS Arizona at Pearl Harbor. "Let us never forget ..." A lot of people died that day. To fail to leave a memorial is unthinkable to me.
