New World Trade Center (??)
 
this concept is by a Montreal design group.. It will most likely be eliminated in the next round, since it lacks "wow factor", even though its the most efficient, space saving,stable design...

ohiochica 02-06-2003 09:59 PM

I know but i dont think they should put 3 towers instead of two...i think they should keep the same concept of the twin towers but thats just my opinion...

pauls-si 02-06-2003 10:22 PM

Looks pretty cool.....maybe it needs to be bigger and better than the original towers..imo

personally i've always liked the Libeskind design from the very start.

now there are only 2 designs left in the running. hope its the one i like. the other one is weird looking.

Racing Rice 02-07-2003 07:18 AM

I personally like the first one. I think they should build it with 3 towers.. Its bigger! Plus, IMO, all three of them could represent unity, since they are connected together. Which is kinda what happened (atleast for a little while) after 9/11. I personally like the first one.:yes:

DsBlu01CivEX 02-07-2003 09:48 AM

um.....yah i'm not a huge fan of any of them. The first one (the one originally posted) I do like the concept cuz it's sorta like a "protective" barrier for the twin towers that went down....and then the other 2 are cool lookin and would look awesome in a huge new city...but NY is an old city and I think the buildings should embody some of that historical meaning. Right now I think all the designs that have been posted are gonna be huge monstrosities to the NYC skyline. Sure I'm the first to get drawn to real modern stuff...but I just think the new WTC would mean a lot more to "Americans" if it still embodied some of the Twin Tower's personality and had some historical NYC meaning behind the design. Just my opinion though.

Racing Rice 02-07-2003 11:12 AM

Keep in mind these are just drawings, and models.. I think they would look great in real life..:yes:

what, americans choosing something efficient? they won't hear of it! That triplet design is an awesome idea, but because its a good idea it wont be used.

yeah...even though thats pertty gay...you're probably right...
I think it's time for something new...
the US needs a more modern look in it's bigger cities.
And i think an outragious building would be best for all americans.

JamieS697 02-07-2003 10:03 PM

now that i realize what the three towers are actually doing i support that idea bc its kinda cool the barrier that they set up it actually gives meaning to the idea unlike the rest
