    Although NYC and the rest of the country will never be the same without the towers. This building is a beautiful upgrade to empower us all.

    Symbolically powerful, but some locals had strong mixed reactions when the under-construction tower began to creep into their view of the skyline. Very emotional. Read more

    If you see pictures of the twin towers and how magnificent they were, you can't avoid a feeling of sadness overcoming your skyline memories.

    I'm glad I actually got to go to the observatory deck whenever she was still standing tall. Wish we would have built another to match in her place. RIP WTC

    This shouldn't be an attraction my family lost people here. Its good to go to respect the people who passed away. Not for buying 9/11 stuff and using selfie sticks in the memorial.

    The observatory is ok. But honestly, I prefer the Empire State's. The view is better there, and there are no glasses (better for taking pics).
