While I don’t think our local politians have the wherewithal to actually rebuild the towers as they once stood, doing so would send a strong message to Bin Laden and his group of merry murders that this city’s landscape, and the U.S. in general, would not be altered by terrorist acts.
I ALWAYS WANTED THE TOWERS TO BE BUILT AGAIN, BIGGER, STRONGER, AND SAFER. WE CAN DO ANYTHING IF WE HAVE THE WILL. DONT LET THE TERRORISTS WIN. REMEMBER THE TWIN TOWERS! REBUILD THE TWIN TOWERS! BUILD IT AND THEY WILL COME.
I WAS THERE THE DAY THE BUILDING FELL DOWN WITH THE MINE HILL FIRST AID SQUAD AS PART OF THE NEW JERSEY STATE FIRST AID COUNCIL ALONG WITH ME WERE LISA ALERS,RONALD REGAN AND EDNA DEACON WE WHERE SITTING ON THE CORNERS OF CHAMBERS AND WEST STREET.
I drove from Tennessee on September 12th, to do what I could to clean up what had been my favorite spot in the country. To not rebuild what was once there, much admired, and cherished by most, is an insult to us all still here, and to those whose lives were lost. Surely common sense, and the common good willl prevail – and thank you for the opportunity to say it
The Twin Towers MUST be rebuilt! It’s the only and the best way to properly remember the victims, restore the city and to restore and give back to america!! The Freedom Tower is a disgusting desgin and cannot be built. Please. Lets unite and do the right thing!
Looking at our skyline without the Twin Towers is something we should never see again. I am disgusted by their recent plans, this “Freedom Tower” bull. I never thought I would say this, but Donald Trump was right. Build the Twin Towers again, but one story taller. I cannot think of any other plan giving more tribute to our lost brothers and sisters we lost that terrible day.
As the Twin Towers fell, First Aid Squads from throughout the State of NJ were staged in the Meadowlands. Approximately fifty were taken through the Holland Tunnel and staged at Chelsea Piers. One ambulance was placed at Ground Zero’s Comman Center, and it was the one I was part of the crew, “Mine Hill First Aid Squad”. Captain Edna Deacon, George Morris, Lisa Alers, and myself Ronald Regen. There were no lives to save at this point, but a lot to witness.
The Twin Towers were such a powerful and iconic part of NYC. Manhattan just doesn’t feel the same without them. And unless they are rebuilt in some way, I don’t think New York will ever be that cool again. I’m fine with either rebuilding the twin towers as they were, or just having the memorial garden to respect the victims, but the new WTC 1 is very cold and corporate and ominous looking, and really has no connection with any of New York’s history or culture.

It was a crazy, and sorrow-filled day. And ever since, the city’s been different. Let’s rebuild.

The Twin Towers have never left us, so let the enemy think that they have taken them from us.
