I think they should be rebuilt the same way.

I’ve lived in south Mississippi all my life, but fell in love with the WTC when I saw King Kong as a child. I began learning about all of the engineering innovation that went into the construction of this amazing piece of American architecture. I had always planned to visit Manhattan one day specifically to go to the top of the World Trade Center. This plan would be the next best thing, not that Freedom Tower BS! Kudos to you guys, I hope all goes well. Looking forward to visiting!

Please rebuild the Twin Towers! Doing this would show the rest of the world that we can overcome even the darkest of times and it would also demonstrate America’s bravery and ability to stand as a united nation.

It’s because the Freedom Tower sucks.
And I never got to visit the towers in person.

It is my ardent wish to see these 2 towers rebuilt to show the damned bastards that were in on this assault to the American psyche.

Raising the towers anew, strengthened and proud before the world, is the ultimate expression and proof of American heart, resilience and rejection of surrender to evil.

I cannot think of a more important symbolic collective endeavor as a country than to rebuild the Twin Towers. The void we’re experiencing in our morale, dignity as well as the pain in our hearts will not have a chance to repair if they are not rebuilt. It is the only way. Let’s stop speaking of the great things our country has acheived in the past and show ourselves and our children what is still possible. To keep liberty a reality and not just a word - it takes courage and work.

New York is not New York without the Twin Towers. Evil took away the originals. Hope and faith and good old-fashioned American ingenuity, perseverance & gumption will re-build them to their former glory. Bring back the Twin Towers!

California love goes out to you all!

I want the Twin Towers back. I’ll admit, I was in second grade at the time of 9/11 and I didn’t even know what the buildings meant to the world. But now I do know and I know NYC needs those buildings back, not a gay building that doesn’t show Freedom it shows Fear. I went to NYC July 2008 and seeing a hole in the ground that should be the WTC being rebuilt made me mad so I hope those buildings are rebuilt because they should not be replaced by a building that no one will want to look at!

The world trade center was a symbol of the economic and social freedom for which our nation has fought. The towers were bold and iconic. If it be the will of those whose loved ones perished there on that horrible day, I would like to see the towers improved, strengthened, and rebuilt. No other gesture will restore the faith and freedom of our great country quite like this one. It says to the world that violence will not change the fabric of who we are. We do not fear. We prevail.

NY just hasnt been the same since 9/11, rebuild the twin towers and make new york new york again

I had no idea that this plan existed until today. I grew up in NJ in the shadow of the towers and think this is the way to go! We need to restore the sky-line and remember what happened! This does both! Why is this so hard? It seems like a no-brainer. Lets get this done before it is too late!

you are right! The twin towers should be rebuilt to show that America can rebuild itself no matter what the damage is! GOD BLESS AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!! -Ron from chino hills

Great idea. What better way to show the terroists than to rebuild the twin towers.

I believe that we should rebuild the twin towers. There is no doubt that the victims of Sept 11 loved working in the twin towers. I think that they would want us to rebuild (contrary to what some people believe). However, the only true “memorial” for Sept 11, would be the twin towers rebuilt.

My son, who is 6 years old, understands the importance of rebuilding the Twin Towers as they stood or better. He wants to visit them, and show “the bad guys” that they “can’t beat the American Team”. I would like to see him have the opportunity to make that trip.

I really would enjoy seeing the Lower Manhattan skyline restored with the original two towers that everyone remembers. It shows a sign of courage and bravery that we all made it through the years and will continue to remember all those that risked their lives in saving others.

Please rebuild the original twin towers design(maybe sturdier)–nothing else will be adequate to tell our enemies that we will never ever give up. If they take it out again we’ll build it again and again forever. Surrender is not an option now or ever.

Rebuild Now! Put the bureaucracy to rest! What a more fitting tribute to those who lost their lives, their families and this country than to have the Twin Towers II open on September 11, 2011? I can not think of any.

Every time I see a movie with scenes of the twin towers and every time I see a picture of New York post the destruction of the twin towers, I am reminded at what is missing in the New York skyline. The towers need to be rebuilt to help heal this nation. Anything else will only serve as a reminder of what’s missing.

I was born and raised in New York. The Twin Towers and the Statue of Liberty have always stood for unity and love of my country! Let the towers rise as a phoneix from the ashes!! Excellent, Excellent idea!!

For NYC and the nation’s pride and DIGNITY, the towers should rise again!! Every time we see almost any image of the NYC skyline made between 1973 and that horrid day in 2001, we will think of 9/11. Why not help the healing by putting them back? Also, what better way to say “f**k you” to the people who wish to see America destroyed? We can’t bring the victims back, but we can restore an image eternally linked with their memories. EVERYONE WINS(except our enemies)! Up the towers!!!!!!!!

The twin towers of the World Trade Center were more than just buildings. They were proof of New York’s belief in itself. Built at a time when New York’s future seemed uncertain, the towers restored confidence and helped bring a halt to the decline of lower Manhattan. Brash, glitzy, and grand, they quickly became symbols of New York. I believe the same thing can happen again if they are rebuilt. I pray they are. Good Luck Guys!

I think we should build them, but even taller, and maybe 4 of them. The double twins!

When I think of the hole that remains at Ground Zero nearly SEVEN YEARS after the terrorist atrocities of 9/11/2001…I wonder what country I live in.

In 1959, the United States was still 2 years away from putting a man in space. A single decade later, two of our citizens stood on the surface of another world.

Like the Towers themselves, Americans used to be a people who challenged the sky. If we still are, the Towers must be rebuilt. Better. And 9 feet 11 inches taller than before.

A long time ago, I saw the fourth of July fireworks from the World Trade Center. It’s something I’ll never forget. I was in the city this past fourth of July and it’s just not the same without the twin towers dominating the skyline. Bringing the towers back would be the best tribute to all those who lost their lives on 9/11.

My son lives 1 mile north of the towers and was getting into a cab that morning to go to work in the Chrysler building. Noticed a plane way too low and proceeded to work. Word soon came that morning all was well with him and his (now) wife via blackberry message to my daughter in Boston.
Windows of the World was one of the first places he took me to show his town. Above the clouds!
I am glad to add my name to this list and think rebuilding the towers is exactly the message we should make.
