The Twin Towers Alliance Petition The statement below rings as true in 2011 as it did in 2006. The thousands of comments that have been left over the years are just the tip of an iceberg. The question for those who consider adding their names to the petition is not will new state-of-the-art Twin Towers be built, which no one knows, but should new Twin Towers be built, with which most of us have always agreed. 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.

My grandfather built those buildings with many other brave men. To have them knocked down by a group of spineless jerk offs would be a slap in his face. So lets rebuild, send a message you can break our walls but never tear us down.
I think it will be great making the twin towers 2. New York is well known for those towers.
Yes, build them back please. As citizen of the world, no other construction will do for New York what the original towers will. Bring back the Lower Manhattan landscape.
I have always felt that the twin towers should be rebuilt and correctly this time. I was disappointed when I heard they were not going to rebuild them. I realize that it is a very hard task at hand. It would mean jobs for many people also.
We can rebuild america one step at a time, starting with the world trade center.
I worked in the trade center in the early 70′s as a Drywall taper. And I was always proud of that. But most of all we need to rebuild them and not show that we live in fear. If we can spend trillions on this war why not rebuild the towers giving thousands of people much needed jobs here at home. And most of all let’s do it in remembrance to all of those who died that fateful day on Sept 11. 2001. Let’s rebuild for them. God bless America.
I always said that we should show the world we can not be intimadated. If you knock our buildings down we will be them back. If you knock them down again we will build three fold. We are not to show fear, Americans need to stand tall and show the world and our enemies that we will not live in fear..I worked in the trade centers as a drywall taper..God Bless America
the twin towers are a historic trademark for america. THEY MUST BE RESTORED!!! and to also show u can not bring us down.
First and foremost as a proud NY’er, I understand and feel the pain with all of those who lost loved ones on that tragic day. As a child, I did not see my father for the first years of my life because he was busy ‘building his towers’. He was a foreman for the cement and concrete union, was on the job for all those years and I didn’t mind one bit. I got to see my dad’s work every day, and HE was so proud of that. Unfortunately, I lost him right after the attacks of 9/11. REBUILD THE TOWERS!
WE NEED TO REBUILD WHAT WAS THERE AND SO BEAUTIFUL. WE CANNOT LET ANYTHING STAND IN OUR WAY, NOT POLITICS, NOT FINANACES …. NOTHING… LETS REBUILD!!!!
Please help the alliance and the people of New York City get back what we miss so much, the twin towers! I was a maintenance electrician at the towers and loved to go to work every day as did those who were fortunate to work there as well. I believe that we would show great strength as a nation by rebuilding the Towers. N.Y.C. union construstion can build a safer, stronger, and better than ever World Trade Center.
NY skyline needs the twin towers back. Rebuild because it will send a message like from a famous American Terminator (Schwarzenegger) it will speak volumes of “I’m baaaaaacccck!!
It sucks a whole lot not to see the twin towers.
Rebuild now!We are the people! Not the press!

Lets do it!
Rebuild Now!! When I watch movies made in New York after 9/11, it is like a big hole in the skyline and I get angry all over again. People rise up like we all did with Senate’s skewed amnesty bill and get this thing rebuilt.
My brother-in-law, a Viet Nam Vet (Marine) was one of the masons who worked on building the Twin Towers, this was a piece of his legacy as well as that of many other Americans. Nothing would please this man’s family more than to see his work, his blood and sweat infused in the buildings skeleton, rebuilt in it’s original form.
Rebuild the Twin Towers!
