It is not a grave site. With that thinking, London would have been one great big memorial.

I'm sure most if not all of the victims' relatives would like the towers rebuilt. What finer momument to all that have lost their lives.

No New Yorker I have talked with since this has thought rebuilding the WTC on that site is a good idea, and I have talked to quite a few. Many have felt that rebuilding the WTC in one form or another is acceptable, but I suspect the liability and business concerns outlined above will end up ruling the day. In the end, New Yorkers will decide what is best for the city.

I agree. I mean no disrespect to the dead, but there are many cities that have been devastated both by war and disaster that rebuilt bigger and better afterwards. I see no disrespect in that. I think it's, if anything, an act of faith unbroken by the disaster.
