World Trade Center

Ex-building associated with NYC, destroyed during terrorist attack (Dealing With Terrorism) on Sept11'01. (after being previously attacked in 1993!)

Some sites focused on options for rebuilding the area:

• http://rebuilddowntownourtown.org/

• Ny Times article includes an interactive map (Flash6) of recommendations from some fancy people.

An amusing critique of the 2nd-try set of plans.

Many people hated it before it blew up. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_of_the_World_Trade_Center

• it used a lot of Eminent Domain
  • killed Radio Row 1 2
• lots of vacancies in it when it was built, until government offices moved in (Subsidy)

Isn't there some sort of international organization that links the various world trade centers in different parts of the world? --JohnAbbe
