Awesome.

Build it short and the m!@#$%^&*()_s win.
Build it tall, with whatever anti-attack stuff you need, and we demonstrate the American spirit.

Gee, I don't know about building the tallest building. Wouldn't it just be an automatic target? I know that I, personally, would *not* want to work there.

I personally think this "seventh" plan is pretty good but, I just wish these plans would consider putting in a museum/theatre to memorialize the people we lost on that day.

I agree with Tommy. Any plan needs to forever memorialize in name or photo those that were lost that day. The same should be done at the Pentagon, as well.

What a perfect name, having the worlds tallest building there, a great design, a very appropiate memorial! I think all of America especially New Yorkers would embrace this.

The memorial is absolutely beautiful! The only thing I would add is a statue of a construction/trade worker for those that toiled there for so many months, day in and day out, some developing health problems because of it.

Build short the terrorists win.
Build tall nobody will work there.

Solution: Build the world largest prison. Put all the criminals in there. You show the terrorists whose boss and if another plane hits it who cares?

Put something very tall to restore our skyline! I'm not talking about office towers (people would probably be apprehensive now in a >70-story bldg) - I'm talking about a structure like the Eiffel Tower, the Space Needle, etc. that will be visible from 50 miles away. The tower itself can be the memorial - the tallest memorial in the whole world. Better yet, build 2 of them.
