I am very impressed with the new World Trade Center. I believe that it should become the tallest building in the western region. I think that it is not as much of a threat as it used to be. I also think that we need to build the World Trade Center to prove to the rest of the world that we will not back down or give in.

I feel as if re-building the World Trade Center shows that we are courageous. Although it shows our bravery, it could also cause us to be targeted again. I do feel as if re-building it was necessary for jobs and other important things. I don't feel as if they should have made it so tall this time.

This is a very impressive building and it's not even finished yet. It would be cool if the WTC actually in the end was the tallest building in the world. Sure rebuilding could potentially lead to some danger but there is no way we will ever let a tragedy like 9/11 happen again. Rebuilding the WTC proves that America isn't going to just lay down and die, we will fight and continue to grow and improve.

I am impressed with the new World Trade Center. I do agree that the WTC should re-claim its spot as one of the world's tallest building. I don't think that it is too dangerous. If it is built correctly then there should be no problem. I don't think that its necessary to prove itself.

No, im not impressed with the new World Trade Center. Yes I do agree that the WTC should re-claim its spot as one of the tallest building in the world. I think that re-building the WTC is too dangerous and has potential to pose a treat to America's safety. Why, because I just think its too dangerous. That's it for now.

I am very impressed with the new World Trade Center I really wanna go see it when it's done. I totally agree with rebuilding the trade center and making it one of the tallest buildings in the world. I don't think it poses a threat and even if it does we will rebuild it again and it was definitely necessary to rebuild it to prove a point to the rest of the world because it shows that we don't give up.

I am fascinated by this. I love big buildings. I think it should reclaim its spot, especially after the 9/11 attack. It could have some threat, but I think it's a way to let the world know that America can recover after a terrorist plot in 2011.

I am impressed by the new World Trade Center. I guess the WTC should re-claim it, but I don't know if its completely necessary. I don't think the building is dangerous to build. I also don't believe that America has to "prove" itself to any other country. We should just worry about ourselves for a little while and not care so much about appearance.

I think it’s cool that they re-built the building. I don’t think it’s a threat to our country because of its height, I think if terrorist were to do 9/11 again they plan the buildings for certain reasons. I don’t think they should have named it freedom tower, to me that’s kind of not a thought out name. This building is beautiful though! I’m glad they have something up instead of an empty block and I can’t wait till people start to work in the building.

Charlene Turner said...

Yes. Some what I do agree with the WTC becoming the tallest building. Well yes it could be dangerous but any tall build can and far as the U.S. trying to prove a point that's on them. Honestly the world is a beautiful place itself and a tall building does not always make it better.

I am impressed with the new World Trade Center. I think that the WTC should re-claim its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world. I don't necessarily think that we have to re-build it in order to prove ourselves to the rest of the world but I think it does show them that they can't knock us down all the way. It shows that we are strong and while we are always going to remember, we are going to keep moving forward and move on.

I am impressed with the new World Trade Center. I do agree that WTC should re-claim its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world. I think they shouldn't have built it that tall again, because it could always get hit again.

Rebuilding WTC is impressive. It should reclaim itself. It's showing courage that we wouldn't rebuild it just because it was attacked.

I am impressed with the new world trade center. I think it has the right to be one of the tallest building in the world. I don't think it poses as a threat or against our safety more of a claiming it back. Because of what happened there, it's good to have a new one there. Nothing can stop us, it will still never be forgotten either.

Yes very impressed by how tall and how nice it looks.Yes.No ,it doesn't pose a threat it's just rebuilding something we lost a few years ago it's giving a few hope in rebuilding one of the many things we lost a few years ago.

Yes I am impressed with the new World Trade Center. I don't know about its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world. I don't think it shouldn't be as tall, but I do like the height! Well, again, I really don't know about it being posed to America's safety. It might because now every other country has a target to hit us. It could turn into another 9/11 or something way worse. That's another reason why they shouldn't make it so tall. So, other countries won't have a target to hit us with. That will be the easiest target because it is so tall.

I think that its cool that they rebuilt it.

Yes I am impressed with the new World Trade Center . It looks vey nice , even though it wont be able to replace the first one . It still is a situation that would never ever be fogotten .

I am impressed with the new "World Trade Center". I agree that WTC should re-claim its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world, because it is. I think it was necessary for the U.S. to rebuild the WTC because it lets others know that we have the authority and we are not going to let something as like 9/11 tear us down.

That is pretty impressive. Especially how they said they complete about a floor a week. I do believe it would be incredible to rebuild it to be the tallest building in the world. It would definitely prove itself to the rest of the world. Just because we got knocked down doesn't mean we can't get back up. -Josh Cutchins

I am impressed with the new World Trade Center. No I don't think it should reclaim is spot as the tallest building. It is to dangerous to re-building. No it is not necessary to re-build the WTC building. If the WTC building is the tallest in the world it will be so much money to spend.

Yes, I am very impressed with the new World Trade Center. Yes, I think that the WTC should reclaims its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world. I don't think it was necessary to rebuild the WTC unless they want it to be the tallest building. I do think its going to become unsafe if they keep adding on. I think that good enough.

Dylan said...

I am impressed with the building.I agree it should be one of the tallest buildings again. I think it does pose a threat to Americas. I don't think they needed to but it is showing that they are going to be OK and that they have moved on.

Mary Alice said...

I am impressed. I don't understand how buildings that tall are built. It amazes me. I do think it should reclaim its spot as one of the tallest buildings in the world. I don't think that building it proves anything to the world and I don't think that we should have to prove anything.

Amber Furman said...

Very impressive! If it is one of the tallest buildings in the world then it should be re-claim its spot. I don't think its dangerous or has any threat to anyone, there are plenty of tall buildings in the city like this one. I think the WTC is a very important part of America and it should have been re-built. Now they will have more room and maybe this will open a few job opportunities.

Ashlee said...

I'm very impressed by the new World Trade Center. I do believe that the WTC should reclaim its spot as the tallest building in the world because it was taken so suddenly and unexpectedly last time.
It could definitely cause a threat/danger to us. If the last WTC was destroyed by terrorists, why can't this one have that same threat?
