idea to rebuild WTC and memorial

<...two towers--even taller than the originals--and a vast pit dug into the earth between them, 911 feet deep, accessed by a spiraling ramp. At the bottom would be a reflecting pool, a memorial, and a cultural center.

I am not familiar with this architect, but I like his idea for the WTC, especially the taller towers. Not sure if a 911-foot-deep pit is physically possible at this location, but the actual depth could be modified. I think it would have a similar effect to the sunken parts of the Vietnam Memorial, which despite early skepticism, was very successful as a monument.
