I wasn't trying to stack the deck. A claim was made that the majority of New Yorkers don't want the Towers rebuilt, or anything else tall down there, and I just pinged a few NYers I have met personally. I know there's a few Sacred Grounders around, my uncle's one of them. I just disagree with him (and with you too sweetie--but at least you don't want the whole sixteen acres, and aren't averse to building something commercial).

The problem with a park, Nitro, is that people love the idea of them and hate the reality of them. Especially as a solemn memorial they'd hate it. They like the idea of sitting on a nice bench in quiet contemplation, surrounded by attractive landscaping. But the dusk-to-dawn activities in literally all of these pocket parks are more profane than sacred, and a park at Ground Zero will unfortunately be no exception.

hell, Darling you are an artist, I am am a realist, I was in the WTC for the '93 blast and after, we all went back to the towers and were not afraid... One of the favorite places was... General George Washingtons Church!!

It is the place and I hate the commercial but...!!
