The one thing that the new WTC has in common with the original WTC is they both were always behind the World Financial Center. That’s all they will ever have in common. The original WTC, despite gaining some safety issues regarding its final days(and maybe in 1993), was a marvel in architectural design. Something you will never see again in this lifetime.

Fun fact: Minoru Yamasaki, the architect of the Twin Towers, also designed other buildings. For example, he designed the Century Plaza Towers, which is basically LA’s version of the Twin Towers.

The fact that you were born in 1999 and the towers were standing back then (eventhough you were young enough in order to remember it) is some kind of special... As long as you were playing with your toys, those beautiful towers were standing there, and life in NYC was going though the golden years of 1999 & 2000...

I understand that 9/11 was really bad in terms of lives lost that day. However, what about Radio Row that the original WTC displaced? Whatever happened to those folks who became jobless after the U.S. federal government asserted eminent domain? Before anyone responds to me that those who were displaced by the feds eventually found other employment, that is not the point. The point is, there is karma out there, so we as humanity owe it to others, as well as ourselves, to reach a middle ground with others without compromising too much (i.e., without making permanent sacrifices that hurts others for one's own personal gain).
@ArgirisRamandanisАй бұрын
Of course the wtc construction was a bad thing for those people owning their businesses there (in RadioRow)... It is hard to feel their position, but we cannot say that this created such a bad karma.. By accepting this theory of karma is like we accept that all the people who died there deserved it, and it too bad to believe it... It is totally different to displace a business from killing an employee... Of course we have to respect one another, but after all this project was implemented by the PortAuthority.. All those businessemen of RadioRow should have received some kind of compensation from the PortAuthority, so they had the opportunity to move their businesses somewhere else.. If they were so sure about their business fame they could have leased a space at the WTC Mall (keeping their business location identical). Besides that, the WTC project was not offering only private offices/space for lease, but also created public spaces for free entertainment & relaxation on the Plaza (that once was not available). It also offered many facilities to enjoy your evening at a low cost (like a tour on the observation deck with a low cost ticket, or even a low cost coffee on the plaza cafeteria's).
@billlu9468Ай бұрын
@@ArgirisRamandanis Point taken, so you're right. At the very least, the PANYNJ could have offered some compensation towards those displaced by the removal of Radio Row. Also, I understand now that it wasn't total karma since 9/11 involved loss of human life whereas Radio Row's demise did not.

That's right my friend... It was one of the music tracks that was constantly playing on the plaza many years before 9/11.. It's an orchestral version of HowDeepIsYourLove (there are many versions of it out there).. A sad coincidence is that those songs were playing even on 9/11 (arround 25-30minutes the first tower collapse)... In a way, those songs gave ''voice'' to the twin towers & the victims, while at the same time the lyrics of these songs was like a farewell to this world...

This is how they should be remembered. Not only for 102 minutes of unfathomable horror, but for lifetimes of joy and prosperity they brought people who worked and visited there. They were the jewel in the crown of Manhattan. Not everybody liked or appreciated them while they were there, but everyone felt it and still feels it to this day now that they're gone. I know what happened but it's still utterly inconceivable. Absolutely unforgivable, lacking any and all absolution.

I always thought they should’ve been a little more ambitious with the rebuilding… the fact that there were two towers side by side was what made the complex special. I really would’ve liked if they went with either the Kenneth Gardner plan, or made the Freedom Tower 2,736 feet tall (the same height as both towers combined) as just one massive middle finger to the terrorists. And NYC would have the title of world’s tallest building back.
@ArgirisRamandanisАй бұрын
It was really hard back then to discuss such things. Many people including me was positive about the rebuilding them because those twin was icons/landmarks of the NY skyline, but it was really hard for all those people who lost their relatives there... It was really hard for them to see rebuilding going on this site because it was a graveyard, but at the same time it was difficult for them to see the same buildings (which took the life of their loved ones) rising up pretending that nothing happened there... It was really hard to find a middle way, and eventhough I am sad for the new towers design it was the only solution to respect both sides...

My lord I still can't get that thought out of my head. I'm British so I grew up hearing the boyband Take That version of this song. Even that is ruined.
