New York unveils redesigned Freedom Tower

NEW YORK - The proposed Freedom Tower at the former World Trade Center site, redesigned to address security concerns, will lose the distinctive asymmetrical shape envisioned in earlier plans but will be the world’s strongest and safest high-rise building, officials said Wednesday.

The redesigned tower will be straighter and squarer, will rise from a base clad in shimmering metal chosen for beauty and blast-resistance and will be topped with an illuminated spire.

I like it more than the last design. the last one was too post modern. this fits more with New York.
