I visited Ground Zero in the summer of 2005, late at night. It was dead silent.

Still remember waking up that morning and seeing one of the towers collapse on the news.

Isn't that the new 7 World Trade Center in the background there (being constructed)? Good to see you guys recovering.

No. 7WTC is done already. It finished in '06 I believe.

Not sure what that one is.

Here's a photo of 1WTC coming along I took last night... should be done in 2013 (so say the estimates).

When all's said and done, downtown Manhattan will be back looking like the amazing place it once was. Not to say it already isn't even without the Twin Towers, but there is definitely something missing.

I went to the top of the Empire State Building last night and it just looks like it's missing a main piece of it. And it is:

Also, here's what the final plans will look like:

I'll never forget that day for the rest of my life. I might've been pretty young but the images will remain with me forever. I'm proud to call downtown manhattan my home and hope to stay here the rest of my life.

RIP. Never forget.

The plans for the site look really cool, I haven't seen them before.

Here's another shot for you I just found of what it'll look like:

I still kind of wish they went with Trump's plan to build the towers but higher (ultimate FU to terrorists and anyone who hates America) but this is way more original.

They should put a giant tesla coil on the highest tower for light shows and Ghostbusters ambiance.

Used to have that picture as background on my laptop for while. And I must say that it does look a whole lot better than the old WTC. Still would have been better if they'd just left the old WTC alone.

How is it more business-esque? If anything it's less business-esque.

I preferred the old WTC. It's size made it epic to look at when coming into the city.

The old towers didn't exactly make the entire center stand out. These will.
