It would only get targeted because it's in New York. Quick! What's the tallest free standing building in the world right now and why isn't that a target???
I don't know.

I can assure you that the US government has a few surprises in store for the Freedom Tower as far as defense is concerned.
Just watch. When that building opens, there are going to be more than a few "special features" unveiled. |
It'll be glistening with turbolasers from the Star Wars universe. :p |

LOL
They should just put some anti-aircraft guns on the roof, just in case. |

They should just build an ordinary building (or a park) and let it go. Having that huge building as a tribute to the victims will do nothing but keep the sorrow and will of vengeance alive. Is it really necessary for the people of NY to remember that day everytime they look out the window (or whatever way you can see that huge thing)? Remember friends and relatives who died? Don't they have to deal with it during their daily lives?
That's pathetic and disturbing. It's a shame that, a fact that should be dealt with respect became some kind of manipulated icon. |

| It's not unrealistic to say terrorists are plotting again. I mean.. what's the best way to demoralize a country? Hit em once. And then hit em again at the same spot to prove they havent progressed. |

i reckon it'll be a target.
possibly not, but if osama (or whoever was responsible), wanted to make the Americans look like eejits then all he'd have to to is destroy this new structure.
i'm sure a few airplanes would do the trick, but i reckon osama woulds be capable of comin up with something better..
the whole airplane into building thing's a little cliche at this stage.. |

Taipei 101 in Taipei oddly enough
its not a target b/c its in Taipei
and rumor has it that the new Freedom tower will have sharks with frickin laser beams attached to their heads :wtf:
although the The Burj Dubai skyscraper soon to start construction will be 700m tall which will surpass the 500m height of Taipei 101,..
aka like way the up in the air!!
also proposed is a 1000m tower for central Austrailia that will be the world's tallest structure which will be more than double the height of the current worlds tallest buildings...ya,.. it looks like Architecture is the job to be these days... |
