Random thought:
What should be built on the WTC site should not be an exact copy of what stood before nor should it be the random smattering of buildings that the LMDC and Port Authority concepts propose. The World Trade Center should be rebuilt, but like us it must be rebuilt as a changed thing. The desire to build something reminiscent of what stood before, but smaller, more human is understandable, but the World Trade Center was not simply damaged, it was destroyed. It was rudely wiped out of existence, but because of it's death it has transcended mortar, steel and location and is now a place that all of humanity inhabits. Our hearts and minds live within those towers the world over. What is rebulit in downtown Manhattan must be like a lightning rod, drawing in the spiritual energy displaced by the devastation of September 11th. I want to see the World Trade Center rise again, like a child you thought once lost, returning home now a man. How we have all changed so very much in such a short period of time, and yet, our souls remain unchanged. So must it be with the World Trade Center to come.
