I don't like the replica idea, too many bad memories if they looked exactly the same. and they would be too big, no one would rent space in the upper floors, etc.

what NYC needs is a state of the art structure there, modestly sized, but something that looks to the future, not back to the past. I would design something that captured the angle of the sun every calendar date of 9/11, and used it to illuminate the memorial part of the complex.

well IMHO the upper floors would be the new UN headquarters : )
