And speaking as a new Yorker, Trump was right. we should have rebuilt them. They were beautiful and this new building is not.
The manhattan skyline was a masterpiece now it doesn’t look much different than jersey city

The manhattan skyline was a masterpiece

Most New Yorkers thought the WTC was hideous and ruined the skyline.

Don't get me wrong - I favored rebuilding two perfect copies of WTC North and South towers - one set in Riyadh, the other in Islamabad.

But don't overdo the praise for two ugly aluminum boxes.

Not to be disrespectful in any way, born in the Bronx and still have family in NYC (the Village, etc) but the towers always made me think of kit kats. My cousin saw the plane and knew it was too low. Another cousin who worked in the building was in Denver that day.
