This is what the area where the World Trade Center used to be. It's all cleaned up and new designs are being reevaluated.
The World Trade Center was actually 7 buildings, including the two pictured.

"No situation of hurt, no philosophy or religion can ever justify such a grave offense on human life and dignity," Pope John Paul II, September 11th, 2002
=========================
"It is the soldier, not the reporter who has given us the freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us the freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who gives us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves beneath the flag, and whose coffin is draped by the flag, who allows the protester to burn the flag." ~Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, Sergeant, USMC

In March 2002, New York used lights to memorialize the World Trade Center
