We, the undersigned, share the belief that nothing could be more inspiring to our people, or disheartening to our enemies, than Twin Towers, at least as tall as before in every respect, soaring above Ground Zero.
We believe that the devastation of September 11, 2001 clouded the picture long after the rubble was cleared away and that a thorough public examination of the rebuilding option is overdue and now required before proceeding on an unalterable course.
We recognize no financial or political roadblocks that cannot be overcome if rebuilding the Towers is the will of the people. And, we see no conflict between stunning Twin Towers and a noble Memorial, which belong together on this site that means so much to us all.
We submit that there is only one way to truly heal the skyline of Manhattan and the heart of America: Rebuild the Twin Towers. Doing anything less would leave a permanent scar on the face of New York and diminish a legendary city.

I’m currently living in Jersey City and every time I look beyond the Hudson River it just looks like something is missing. The Twin Towers always struck my eyes as a child. They would be the first thing I’d notice about NYC before the Empire State Building. I grew up in Essex county and even from the right elevation I was able to see the WTC. I truly miss those buildings. New York hasn’t been the same without them. I remember 9/11 perfectly and I really wish that day never happened.

Rebuilding larger twin towers should be the only option. I wholeheartedly agreed with this idea years ago when Donald Trump advocated it. There are just so many reasons and all have been expressed by many. Just please do it!

Rebuild the Twin Towers *exactly* as they were. They were an iconic part of the NY Skyline and since 9/11 have been immortalized as the most visible symbol of our strength, resilience, and determination overcome everything out adversaries would throw against us. That was how the NY Skyline was, and that is how the NY Skyline should be again.

10 year anniversary is coming up soon and nothing has been done with the site. Meanwhile, the Burj Khalifa, the tallest building in the world, is built within this time span. Enough with the bureaucracy, let’s REBUILD the site.

Not only should we rebuild the twin towers but the top two floors should be a Military base and lets put some battelship guns facing out in each direction…Show POWER to the rest of the world…

I worked downtown for many years, loved having lunch in the plaza near the Towers. In 1993 I went through the PATH station a few hours before it was bombed, and realize that the toll could have been much worse that day. A week after 9/11, I went back to the site, and like everyone else the absence of the Towers was overwhelming. I knew someone who was killed that terrible day. We can’t bring back those who were lost, but we can and should rebuild the Twin Towers.

An excavated piece of land does not honor the lives lost on 9/11. The proposed Freedom Tower does not properly honor them. Rebuilding the twin towers is only way to go. It does not only honor the lives lost, but it shows that we as a nation, can stand strong and overcome. It shows that we cannot be weakened, but only made stronger. Those two glorious towers would show that the memories of those lost stand tall in our hearts. And by rebuilding the twin towers, it shows that we will never forget.

Please rebuild the twin towers..when i was younger i used to look out the window and when i saw the twin towers I KNEW I was in New York….the Freedom Tower would not be the same! I loved those buildings and building something not similar at all is just terribe! LONG LIVE THE WORLD TRADE CENTERS AND BRING THEM BACK!! BIGGER..BETTER (even though they couldnt be much better)..STRONGER like the design they showed on youtube pretty much the same except stronger and one extra floor on each building!!

I might only be a 17 year old guy who has been a New Yorker his whole life living on Long Island. But I can still remember the time very very clearly before 9/11 in the late 90’s when I was always amazed by the New York City skyline and the Twin Towers. I was so stunned by these beautiful buildings that I was completely shocked when 9/11 happened. The point to all of this is to Rebuild the World Trade Center and make our city whole once more. Because if we don’t do anything, who will?

I sent a message to the mayor of NY recommending this “healing” of America. It is NOT the Muslims who are bad, those are NOT true Muslims, they are fakers. Wake Up Before it’s too late!

These need to be rebuilt. We must show the World that when we get knocked down we are not down and out but better yet we come back bigger and stronger and will not be intimidated by terrorists.

The twin towers should be rebuilt. We had built a landmark. And now we have to rebuild it.

I could not agree more that the Twin Towers should be built bigger and better than ever. Why must we be so slow wasting our time with red tape when the answer is so obvious. I love this plan and would contribute financially and in any other way I could to see it become a reality. And if your worried about another attack, park the USS Ronald Reagan in the Hudson. Nothing should deter our way of life. Good job to the planners.

The Freedom Tower IS Nice And All But It Doesnt Show The Real New York Which Is Why I Want My Old Towers Back!
rebuild the twin towers and add 10 more stories
I want the Towers to be built all over again. I think they should be Taller and Bigger than before. I would even Volunteer myself for free to help build them again. I just want to see them on the skyline again.
It about time we take a stand as Americans. The Twin Towers were a symbol of Freedom through out the world. We are tought from childhood the when you get knocked down dust yourself off and get back up. Its the American way. This is why The Towers have to go back up just like a pheonix rising from the ashes. What was that famous movie that said “We’re Back” oh thats right Poltergeist.
Semper Fi
The only right thing to do is rebuild the towers.
the twin towers were an american icon and we need our icon back, no other thing will fill the icon requirement
we need our towers back this will show the world we can make it thru anyhting life can throw at us if we let them build the freedom tower it dont show the world nothing at all we need the towers back built bigger an better then before govt do the right thing an help heal those who were lost!!!!!!!!
Not rebuilding the Twin Towers is like saying we’re too scared to rebuild them. Bring them back!! They were an icon in NYC, and we’d show that we can rebuild from something like 9/11.
Just rebuild them!
I think that if we were to recreate these towers, it would represent this nation’s ability to emerge from our darkest times. It is our willpower that makes these united states proud. September 11th was one of our darkest days, but we stood strong. Hopefully one day the Twin Towers will also once again stand strong.
Well the “Osama Bin Laden tower” has topped the street. This building is a friggin joke. It took almost a decade to build this atrocity. It took Dubai half of that to build the awesome Burj Khalifa. I hope you gov’t assholes enjoyed pissing my tax dollars on the al queda center. Will never visit this joke of a complex ever in my life. Rebuilding the tougher towers would have been quicker and cheaper to do.
I grew up watching these being biult,and to take away something as majestic as these would be a dismantling of american pride,heritage and courage.Not only do these towers represent america but it represents what we strive for,being the best,and to let people who hate america win over our pride is to admit that we are a nation of cowards.Lets biuld these towers up again and stronger and taller,with better measures in place,to rebiuld with better consequences.GOD BLESS AMERICA.
I think we should rebuild the amazing towers. In 2001 they were beautiful and had no good reason at all to be taken down by those stupid terrorists. I hate America is not a ligit reason for an attack. I really would like a new twin tower to give us back the skyline we all love.
As much as i loved the Twin Towers, the new building does not express any feeling of freedom or blend with the New York skyline, BRING THE TWIN TOWERS BACK!!!
Rebuild the Twin Towers!
Rebuild the symbol of the American people. The twin towers represented truth, courage and the spirit of America. Build them to represent America again.
Listen to the voice of the people.
Rebuilding the twin towers will help heal the wounds of 9/11.
It’s our country. 9/11 broke our hearts. If we rebuild, we will have a strong economy, our spirit and THE TWIN TOWERS.
I just finished reading the Wikipedia article about what building has been chosen for the main WTC building. I said to myself, “WHAT!?” It just isn’t right to not rebuild the Twin Towers. I remember seeing the Towers from my window all the way in Woodbridge, NJ (about 2 driving hours from NYC) and think, “wow I’m so close to NYC, cool!” It was my beacon, telling me where I was, almost like a compass. It would be a shame to never see that beacon again.
PLEASE REBUILD THE TWIN TOWERS! DUMP THE FREEDOM TOWER CONCEPT AWAY AND REBUILD, BIGGER, BETTER, BOLDER, AND STRONGER WTC TWIN TOWERS!! A REAL AMERICAN SYMBOL.
This could possibly be the most patriotic thing for anyone who is an American during this time in history. To rebuild what our enemies think they have taken from us. No other buildings will look the way the Twin Towers did on the Manhattan skyline. The American people can once again have a majestic and beautiful site to see, and the deepest sense of patriotism while gazing upon the Twin Towers II.
Why isn’t this done yet? NYC just doesn’t look or feel right without the towers. I don’t want any “Freedom Towers” or any such nonsense either, just rebuild the towers exactly the way they were, straight from the original blueprints.
