WTC Memorial Finalist Designs Unveiled

Some very nice designs IMO

I like the "Passages of Light: The Memorial Cloud" by Gisela Baurmann.

They broadcast the event on WNYC (NYC public radio) this morning, I think it took place at Winter Garden. As the the different designers were describing the work they had new age music playing in the background. I guess that was at the event itself, I thought that was silly.

Someone said "how do they plan on changing all those LED lights when they burn out"?

Either Garden of Light of Passages of Light

Passages of Light or Suspended memory.

Why couldn't any of these people design the new WTC building?

Meh... i still vote for white marble towers 2x as tall as before. I don't think we're properly conveying our leetness here...

just a guess, but id imagine most of the finalests lack an engineering degree.

I'm iffy on this one acemcmac, it's be great to have bigger towers, but I don't think many people would feel safe in them.
