they were going to decide otherwise..
and be hated by tons of folks..

even if the decision would have been technically justified.

would have been nice if designers hadn't been so timid about its height..
I kinda agree with that 'banksy' fellow on his assessment of the new tower...



I understand the need for a memorial and ways to recognize all those who lost their lives that day.. and I wouldnt want those aspects changed (personally I think the waterfalls/reflecting pools were a great idea)... but im sorry.. WTC 1 DOES look like a tall awkward teen trying to not be noticed.

I guess ultimately though, its up for new Yorkers and the families of those who died to decide for themselves how they perceive it... so why would my opinion (or a glorified graffiti 'artists' for that matter) really matter?
