I would like the original Twin Towers back (suitably beefed up), but this is a better than the aberration they originally had in mind.

I don't know where "ugly, asymetrical and distorted" became the watchword for modern architecture. The current design still has the same complete disregard for the usefulness of the interior, and I don't know if the upper floors are still just empty space.
