Put Osama bin Laden in a cage, strung between two pilar/replicas of the fallen towers, for all to see.

For enjoyment of the children, provide a platform from which they can either spit or urinate.

The towers only seem more attractive now that they are gone. When they were still there, I was never impressed by the arhitecture. The only good thing going for it was the uniformity and the fact there were 2 of them. They complimented each other nicely.

But I prefer glass buildings with swirly things either on the ground, in the middle of the building, or one top .
