It's not as bad as the British "Office of Government Commerce" logo.

It looks like they’ve ripped off the “four-thirds” camera consortium logo. Only by the logic of the WTC logo the new ratio would be 3/2 or three halves. Sorry, if this doesn’t show up, I have never attempted to post an image to Free Republic before.

Looks like a giant tuning fork lined in black to me.

   You can go do a little online shopping and find someone who will design a better logo for $5.

Also there is now one building instead of two, it is shorter (calling the antenna a spire and including it in the building height is dishonest), and it has those “chamfered sides” which in my opinion have an awkward, damaged appearance.

Looks like this forum uses html, so I guess I'll take a stab at it.

That is my impression.

It is all about making WTC a victory for the enemy memorial.

The FedEx logo is excellent.

So funny. On it’s side, it’s a cowboy with priapism. Or just a depiction of Priapus, ancient god of fertility and erections.

Perhaps the Brits are saying Bleep the Public in the nicest possible way.

At least it’s more amusing and has more style than the WTC’s five sterile rectangles.

Three point five mill for that? Five rectangles?

The company (large) that I worked for back in the 80s and early 90s revamped its logo. Spent lots of bucks on the design firm not to mention the cost of stationery, signage, etc.

Then someone pointed out that the colors were the same as the colors of the big competitor. Well, more millions on design and implementation.
