Rebuilding the Past

What should be built on the World Trade Center Site? Is the question on everybodies' mind.

More than 400 designs were entered in a worldwide contest. Studio Daniel Libeskind of Berlin, Germany and the Think team of Newyork,Newyork will now work on what should be built there. Both entries include what should be the world's tallest buildings and a September 11th memorial for the victims and the victim's families. Many more decisions are to be made. Rebuilding the past/site could take up to 12 years. There is still one decision to be made.... should the be the worl's tallest buildings?

Hi Brianna,
I accidentally hit the submit key instead of the post response key, so I am writing to you again and posting this time. As I stated earlier, there is an entire corporation set up to handle the redesign of the World Trade Center. The name of the coporation is the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and I am sure whatever they come up with will be inspirational and BIG!

Keep you eye on this story because there will be lots of news coverage as the plans are finalized.
Keep writing.
