Personally I think the design fucking blows. If anything they should have had two buildings of the same height, taller then original towers.... not some harpoon looking dumb shit.

AdultNex · 02-26-2003, 05:51 PM

Yeah, the spire looks odd.

I guess architecture's evolving.

ServerGenius · 02-26-2003, 06:29 PM

I gues they picked it because it´s harder to fly a plane in....you
have to be a good pilot to hit that weird thing

cool.. it's like superman's ice cave

Ironhorse · 02-26-2003, 06:32 PM

Wow that looks a bit like a giant stonehenge, some archeologist will have fun explaining this some 2000 years in the future..and considering they will be getting their information from digitally recorded conversations like the ones found on this board, they will have a good time piecing that together

I was caught in the traffic around the WTC today ! I guess they where doing a public gathering and announcement !

JohnV · 02-26-2003, 06:36 PM

Hard to tell what the hell it's really going to look like until it's built and your standing there in NYC looking at it. Did the article mention when construction is planned to begin? It should be interesting to see something like that being built.

ServerGenius · 02-26-2003, 06:36 PM

Maybe it attrackts aliens? Looks like some SciFi communication
tower thingy......could be dangerous

lol.

Well that one weird tower may be cool if you can actually go to the top of it. If its just some huge ornament you cant even go up in, then it really blows.

iroc409 · 02-26-2003, 07:53 PM

1776 ft tall, wait, isn't that when we declared independence?

it's been so long since i studied history...

JeremySF · 02-26-2003, 08:02 PM

WTF....what's the point of the spire? to commune with Aliens?

XxXotic · 02-26-2003, 08:44 PM

www.lowermanhattan.info/rebuild/ to see the whole concept behind the new design

personally i think the www.wtc2002.com design was much better

Fuck! If Superman puts in the red crystal, while were still outside, we will lose all our powers!

They should have built the tallest building in the world, not the tallest decoration. This will be the tallest man made structure ever, but the Sears Tower will still be the tallest in terms of usable office space.

incorrect! the petronis towers in kuala lumpur are currently the worlds largest, and theres a new one being built in india or some shit that will be taller then petronis

scheduled for completion 2008 - World Centre of Vedic Learning. The building, Maharishi Vedic Vishwa Prashasan Ragadhani, is to be constructed in the Brahmsthan of India and would be 2222 ft. high, 1111 ft. square at the base. will be the tallest building in the world, as well, scheduled for completeion in 2004 The Shanghai World Financial Center will be the 2nd largest

That last building looks like a giant bottle opener.

I saw on tv they're estimating it will take a decade before it's all finished.

Triple 6 · 02-27-2003, 01:01 AM

Im kinda mad now afer looking at that website and seeing the design more.

Maybe its just me, but the best way to rebuild the skyline would be to have at least two (twin) towers of whatever design there.

And yea of all designs made this one just owns...

http://wtc2002.com

I hope Bloomberg halts this 'final' design. I know he wasnt impressed with the two finalists,=.

I especially liked the safety area

"I have been repeatedly asked "Are you going to build another structure that becomes a target to terrorists ?" My answer is this "Our New Cyber City Design Concept for The New World Trade Center 2002 will be impervious to attack" for an example:

1: Our Cyber City will have a State of the Art External Security System which at this stage evolves around "Sound Waves" which has the capacity at a specific frequency to repel flying objects up to a five mile circumference. ----- FUCKIN-A!

We will seek support from the political system to bring about an edict that a "Five Mile No Fly Zone" area is put into effect around the island of Manhattan" even though the no fly zone would never pass in a million years that repel flying objects thing is the shizzle!
