While I completely agree with him, love this design (I've hated all the others), and wish they do it, I also think that it will probably never happen.
Rebuilt towers won't be built if they can't be leased out, and since they'd instantly become targets again I think it would be very tough to lease them.
While emotionally everyone (myself included) says "put them back" I wonder how many businesses would put their money where their mouth is and actually lease space at or near the top.
It's too bad. I'm a native New Yorker and it rips my heart out every time I see the skyline without the towers there. But if it's not financially feasible those towers won't be rebuilt.

That should be the only criterion.
