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.

Hello, I am Nathan and I am 12! Please rebuild the twin towers so I can see them again and so can everybody else! When I think about New York I think WTC! We cant let these terrorists win! I would like my future children and their children to see it! So please have a heart! REBUILD THE ORIGINAL TWIN TOWERS BUT STRONGER AND NO LOCKS ON THE LIFT DOORS!

when i think about NY… the first thing that comes to anyone’s mind is the World Trade Center… and why the icon of the wealth and prosperity is not rebuilt is the question which should be asked! because by not rebuilding the original WTC America has proved to the world that they have given in to the whims of Osama bin Laden… that America is afraid and that the people of America is afraid.
Gianni Fasulo
These were superb buildings. The ideal solution for Ground Zero.
You can knock them down, but they will always be rebuilt.
Rebuild the Twin Towers.

The Twin Towers must come back. They are the look of America. They look powerful, and are much more beautiful than the freedom tower.
Twin Towers, come back!

I was 8 years old when the twin towers went down and I have always thought why dont they rebuild them. I am coming to New York next year 2010 because I love the look and atmosphere of New York. I think that the twin towers were the most beautiful buildings ever, they stood taller than anything else and it was as if to say “here I am” and I liked that. Obviously I don’t live in America but that just shows if it has had that much of an affect on me then the people of America will agree.

The Freedom towers are really ugly! It would be a disgrace to build them. Build the Twin Towers II! It will make everyone smile! I say re-build them!!!
Dean McCallum
Rebuild them!!! Not rebuilding the twin towers would be a disgrace. Make New York New York again! Stand up against terrorism, show them they cannaot alter the skyline. Lets not give them the satisfaction. Rebuild in the honour of the famalies, the people and the heroic firefighters who died that day. Build the towers taller and stronger and show terrorists around the world that we as people, although we might stumble or get knocked down, we will come back stronger and prevail!
Tor Morten F
Rebuild the towers! That is what the people wants.
Nate Mould
I believe that replacing the old towers as opposed to going with the current watered down and non-inspiring project would be a great tribute to the families involved with this tragedy, would replace one of New York’s iconic landmarks and also show the resilience and strength of this city and the nation as a whole.

Rebuild the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center!
New York City is incomplete without them.

Good Luck in your fight to rebuild the originals. I sure hope it happens and dis-heartens all terrorists through out the world. Once again good luck to everyone involved in the Twin Towers Alliance.

You have to call people. — 7000 — thats not enough for changes!!! You need hundreds of thousands signatures, and I`m in! Rebuild them!! God help You!
TTA Note: Thank you… If people had any idea that there is a movement and a real plan we surely would have hundreds of thousands of signatures — but then we wouldn’t need a petition… If people knew that there is a viable Twin Towers option, it would be all over for that tower that is such a glaring symbol of tyranny, not freedom. And they will know — it is our constant aim. It really is just a matter of time…
Thomas Morris

They should rebuild the towers new york would be new york again.
Rajvinder Multani
I love the twin towers. On september 11th my mom came home from work. And saw me crying she turned on the T.V and was stunned.It was 11:00 a.m. witch meant the towers were already down. I was 5 when they came down. Now I am 12 about to turn 13. I have researched alot about twin towers. Watched videos. And even made tributes. But i still cant get that sicking feeling out of my heart. Only way to get it out is to rebuild the twin towers. 65ft higher so they are tallest buildings in the world again

I agree, I think the Towers should be rebuilt because without them, a piece of New York’s historical heritage is missing. And we need to find the pieces to put it back.

Gob blessed america with the twin towers. God bless all the victims. i really think bringing them back will cause more loving memories to many ppl. Its the right response to bring them back b/c u show the terrorists that we’re not done yet.
roman reyna
im from monterrey mexico but i live in the united states,
I LOVE THE WORLD TRADE CENTER!
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE REBUILD THEM
PLEASE!
i didnt get a chance to go up the first twin towers of the world trade center, but i really really! want to go to new york and see it as new york with the twin towers!
i would love to go up the new twin towers of the world trade center!
please please please rebuild!
its the right thing to do!
RIP to all the victims of 9/11
we need new york to be new york!
Horrible people who did this. Shouldn’t let them (in a way) win, rebuild them and show that we are stronger!
The NYC skyline is just not the same anymore..
It’s a puzzle with 2 pieces yet to be found, them pieces are the Twin Towers.
Lets get them back up there, doing America proud and showing the world that no matter what, we fight back and become bigger and better than ever
Build them stronger and more robust than ever±
Mat L from England, United Kingdom
When you were young, made buildings with Lego or Sandcastles at the beach. Lets take sandcastles, you build two. Then somebody comes along and intentionally knocks them both down. Would you rebuild both or just one? Personally, I would rebuild both! One is like admitting defeat. But two, standing taller, signify power and pride. To summerize the above: Rebuild the Twin Towers!
Freedom Tower, along with the rest of the new WTC Complex is completely meaningless, bearing no memory to those who lost their lives on 9/11/01. I cannot emphasize this next point enough… Stop building that monstrosity that is ‘Freedom Tower’ and bring back the icons of the American Economy - The Twin Towers! A poll conducted by MSNBC found that 92% of Americans would want to see the Twin Towers rise from the ground again. 8% want to destroy New York. Pretty conclusive I would say.
First of all, I’m a citizen of other nation. Anyhow, I just want to support in rebuilding the TWIN towers in the WTC site- better, stronger, & taller! in this way we can remember the memories of the wounded hearts of the thousands of people killed/victims on that terrible day, also this is a bolder message to send terrorists that New York or the USA will NOT be defeated. “We can make things possible if we truly believe we can.” Restore the New York skyline to it’s previous beauty.
New York City should look forward, but must not allow any outside change to be unnaturally imposed on the spirit of this greatest city of the world.
We must rebuild the Twin Towers! New York without the Twin Towers, it seems empty. This skyscrapers, were the greatest in the world. Freedom Tower - a terrible project.
Rebuild the Twin Towers!
I was 16 when the twin towers went down and I will never forget that day because the eleventh of september is also my birthday. I´d like the twin towers would be rebuilt and I think this is the best way to get over from the terrorist attack. From Spain!
It’s got to be the Twin Towers. When I visit New York I really miss them not being there.
New York will never be the same without the Twin Towers. I was 12 yrs old when they went down. I always wanted to visit and stand in top of them but I never got the chance. It should be Rebuilt Better and Stronger so my dream to stand on them can become real. REBUILD THE TWIN TOWERS!!! so New York will be New York again!!! NO Freedom Tower!!! it would be a disgrace if it is built!
I add my name to the list. Cause i knew NY before the tragic events on 9/11. And i would love to see those towers in the sky again. Oboy, what a sight it was!
I sincerely hope that your plan to rebuilt the twin towers will prevail instead of the lacklustre Freedom tower. Plus, the memorial you’re suggesting is even more significative than the one that is planned. The twin towers provided lower Manhattan with a strong skyline which was lengendary prior to the attacks. I was only 17 years old when the attacks occured but the old WTC is still a strong part of my imaginary. I can’t imagine New York City without them.
GET THEM BACK PLEASE!
I live in England and recently came back from an amazing trip to New York. It was really upsetting to see Ground Zero and I have always been interested in the 9/11 and what happened. The Freedom Tower looks quite nice, but it just wouldn’t be the same. In my opinion The Twin Towers II is the only choice! I hope this idea goes ahead, good luck!
ever since i first saw the towers they inspired me and it’s been my dream to stand on top of them to mark a moment of great inner inspiration a moment of transition and a moment that would last forever on. anything else than the towers rising again high into the sky of the magnificent place known and admired all over the world as New York City would be like an identity lost, and a wound that hurts forever and just won’t heal.
It is incredible that 1 World Trade Centre is being allowed to proceed. It is a sure sign of defeat to Al Qaeda. For all of us across the world that were affected by this disaster the only possible way to stand up and prove our will against such appalling behaviour is to rebuild the Twin Towers and show the Manhatten skyline as we all knew it. It is the only fitting and appropriate way to honour all those that lost their lives by proving that we will not be defeated by extremists - rebuild both!
Just Rebuild It.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Twin Towers was a wonderful construction destroyed by two airplanes pilot by terrorists 11-S, after these moment the world change and NY Without WTC1 and WTC2 is very different. The plan of Freedom Tower and other buildings different than Twin Towers isn’t appropiate to Ground Zero (isn’t representative such was old Twin Towers). The old Twin Towers were more than simple towers, were a NY, US , America and Worldwide Symbol, and must be reconstructed.
Greetings from Concepcion, Chile
Hi, i am christian from germany… i would like have the twin towers back, because the skyline in big apple is only original with the towers… the picture of the skyline must be one and only!!!
What I don’t understand is that the terrorists tried to beat this great nation by tearing the Towers out of our hearts. What I have to ask is, why are we letting them win? Why are we giving them their way? Those puny new towers that are being built are a sign of surrender, and America is not one to surrender. Please, please, make everyone in this fine nation reailize that the terrorists don’t have to win if they are already losing.
i always wanted to go up when but and it would a honour to fullfil my childhood dream
iye go frit
Keep the Freedom Tower - but rebuild the Twin Towers too - use this design and also have Donald Trump help
