Donald Trump unveiled his proposal for replacing the World Trade Center originals with taller and impressive towers, as a statement against terrorism.
His structural engineer,
Kenneth Gardner, assures that the new structure would be able to withstand terrorist attacks like those that brought down the Twin Towers on September 11.
The Ground Zero redevelopment project was a subject of various disputes between architects, politicians, as well as Government and Police officials.
Donald Trump considers the present plans for the Freedom Tower is just an empty skeleton suggesting a capitulation. In his opinion, the new building that would be erected at the end of 2008 has to be both a security and an architectural model, but mostly a symbol of rebirth.
