Freedom Tower? Sounds like sarcasm to me. They built a gigantic space station in approximately 10 years, yet little or nothing has been built of this tower here on earth. And Silverstein now wants a bailout! Of course, he’ll get one to keep him quiet ’cause he was complicit and knows who the real players were in 911. There must be a REASON it’s taking so long to build on that spot…investigate, research, think and keep an open mind.
I am okay with the name freedom tower, but the name one world trade center that people are spouting is stupid it sounds like we are giving in to the terrorists.
What is it with that *music* on the video??? It’s 4 mins of showing a building site with bad music… the building of my local supermarket was more eventful and exciting.
The design is ugly and uninspiring. It’s not the outright brashness of the Twin Towers and it bears no resemblance to Liebeskind’s design, like it or not. It’s just a big stupid corporate slab which would look more at home in the South East Asia or Dubai.
Hello I’m a Canadian and I take what happened on 9/11 to heart as there were Canadians in those towers!
To see the lame amount of work that has been done to date is truly a slap in the face to anyone who lost family and friends in the attacks. This thing has taken 11 years to build and to see that it is not yet done is really a testament to how screwed up the American Goverment really is.
I truly hope for the American people’s sake that Obama makes the right type of progress for your country to get it back to what it once was.
A country with a great amount of respect shown to it!
Where it is now is a far cry from the days of Abraham Lincoln.
Christ, 2013. No wonder we don’t carry the respect we once did in the world. It takes us 12 years to rebuild an inherent symbol of our leadership position in the world. The rebuild should have been made a NATIONAL priority.
I’m glad to see progress finally being made on the Freedom Tower. Especially, since the original completion date was supposed to be Septmber 11,2009- last month. Now it’s 4 years late! Better late than never!
thanks for publishing this. its incredible to me how little progress has been made in the construction of these buildings and how little we ever hear about it.

Eight years to build a hole in the ground.
And to think it only took seven years to build the original WTC.

How disappointing. It’s a shameful, bland, lame monument to 9/11.

Obama is just like the rest of the others. All talk no action. I say the hell with having a President. Let the good people make the decisions.

I like Donald Trumps idea. Put the towers back up like they were. The new building looks like shit.
