"The twin towers should have been rebuilt from the start. Rebuilding them shows that we are not / can not be swayed by the terrorist cowards who attacked us. Rebuild them stronger and better and protect them, whatever the cost. It’s a middle finger to those who hate us."
​
Zachary Cestaro (21 April 2025)
"I’m signing once again to vouch for the Twins to be rebuilt and stronger as always. I have never forgotten about 9/11, and the best way to honor our fallen Police Officers and Firemen, along with the thousands of other heroes and victims gone way too soon. I pray to Christ these buildings are to be rebuilt, and the swindle is to be exposed. Thank you very much."
​
Ellis Lewington (20 April 2025)
"I was born nearly 7 years after 9/11, in England, and I have to say that I have never wanted to visit anywhere as much as the Twin Towers. Perhaps it is my taste in architecture, the sheer size of these buildings attracts me to them straight through my computer screen. To dine at the Windows on the World, sat eating 107 stories above the ground, looking out over Manhattan. I guess that feeling is one very hard to come by without the buildings to feel it in.
Think about what it symbolised! Not only international trade and more peaceful times-for many people, on a personal level, it represented those more simple days, pre-2008, before social media made so many people miserable.
Rebuild them. Make the NYC skyline iconic again."

Julian Novoa (19 February 2025)
"I hope we can restore our beautiful skyline we once had. Us Americans deserve it, we need to show that if someone destroys something on our soil we’ll build it back bigger and better. My friend lost his dad who worked on the 63rd floor of the north tower and he even told me if the twin towers were back he would feel like it would give him the proper closure to his dads death. because if we rebuild that means we won. I would give my best to have this become a reality, if this plan goes forward, you’ll see me helping on the construction site to bring back this American dream. God Bless, stand strong USA!!!"
​
Felipe Andrade Oliveira (17 February 2025)
(translated from Portuguese)
"I would sincerely like to see the Twin Towers standing as they were before, but of course, with a much better structure, much reinforced and with much more security. When the attacks happened, I was a child, and I was only 5 or 6 years old…
It would be the best thing for the New York skyline to have the Twin Towers as part of the city again… If I were a billionaire, I would do everything possible to rebuild them along the original lines of the complex… The tributes would be an essential and fundamental part of the project… Even today, I think about how human beings can be so stupid as to destroy buildings the way they did, out of a totally distorted and wrong religious fanaticism… I want the Twin Towers back in NYC!"
​
David Alen (17 January 2025)
"All I hope is this new proposal succeeds so we can get our towers back."
Liam Gies (1 November 2024)
"The Twin Towers were more than just ordinary work skyscrapers, they were symbols. Symbols of American economic power, globalization, and prosperity. But, the day they were destroyed by terrorists, that was all gone. There is still hope though. Hope that we can rebuild the towers once again, and take back what the terrorists took from us. Thousands upon thousands would agree.
From supporter,
Liam Gies"

Jack Lee (19 September 2024)
"While I am Australian, the twin towers were America. They were so iconic and that is what made the NY skyline what it is.
Their reconstruction would be so symbolic as its a slap in the face towards terrorists and a general “You may knock us down but we will come back stronger”.
Please rebuild!"
​
Taber Wood (12 September 2024)
"Rebuilding the Twin Towers is a powerful symbol of our nation’s strength, resilience, and unwavering resolve in the face of terror. The attacks of 9/11 were meant to instill fear and weaken our spirit, but by restoring these iconic towers, we send a clear message to the world: America does not back down. We honor the lives lost by standing tall and showing that we will not be defined by destruction, but by our ability to rebuild, rise, and persevere. This is not just about rebuilding a structure—it’s about reaffirming our national identity, strength, and commitment to freedom."
​
Eric Casey (20 August 2024)
"National landmarks should not disappear!"
​
Michael Matthews (19 December 2019)
"Loved the original twin towers. I was in them my brother had a job interview there and a friend and cousin of mine was in the second plane flight 175.This means so much to me and my family to bringback the iconic world trade center."

Paul Hupperdine (12 December 2016)
"We need the Twin Towers. The new tower, One WorldTrade Center, just does not do it justice. I can't even express the amount of sadness I have that thosebuildings aren't there anymore, and what's in their place is an eyesore, a modern contemporary-design skyscraper that completely ignores what madethe Twin Towers unique. Nothing like them has everexisted, they were a tribute to the time period inwhich they were built, and a symbol of America. NewYork, and America itself needs the Twin Towers back"
​
David Silverstein (18 April 2016)
"The Twin Towers were a symbol of America’s freedom,and were the heart of New York City. America wantsthem back. Freedom Tower is an impressive building,and it should be kept. It would look AMAZING with thetwin towers next to it. The buildings around freedomtower are ugly AF! My best friend died in this and Iknow that he would have wanted this."
​
Steven Leflore (24 October 2012)
"My uncle and grandfather died in those towers. My grandad adored those towers and bringing them back would make me feeel like I still have a piece of them here. Please rebuild"
​
Michael Teegarden (2 October 2010)
"My grandparents and sister died in that horrific dayinside the North and South Towers! Rebuild theTTII!!!!! It’s beautiful and breathtaking, somewhatbetter even than the original Twin Towers. Screw the FTower, rebuild the TTII!"
​
Lorraine Corso (19 July 2010)
"I am a native New Yorker and I served in OIF 2004-2005.
I strongly believe we need to send a clear message tothe world that if you knock us down we will get backup again!
We are New York’s finest and we will not go outwithout a fight!
I would suggest that the towers be taller than beforewith a memorial on site."
​
Sara Lunini (17 November 2009
"We need those towers back! For my uncle andbrother who both died that day in the north andsouth towers, and my dad who barely made itout of the pentagon! Those beautiful buildingsneed to be seen by the new generation, and weall need them back!"
​
Jose Gonzalez (25 May 2009)
"I lost my cousin and dear friend in the 9/11 attacks.There is no doubt in my mind that he would’ve wantedthem back taller and stronger. It’s been said a milliontimes over but there is good reason for that…anything BUT the new and improved Twin Towersshows the terrorists (and the world) that we aren’tthe people we once were when this wonderful countrybegan.
Danny, you are always in our hearts and minds."
​
Ed Kohler (1 July 2007)
"By not rebuilding, it is showing the world how weakand petty Americans can be. They do not separate usfrom the elites, to them we are all the same. I still getchoked up as I pass that skyline almost everyday andsee an empty space. How dare theseelite/politicians/special intrest groups believe to know what is best. We have lost our will, the founding fathers and the greatest generation would be apalledat our apathy. This country has a severe case of ADD. Don’t let these murders be forgotten."
​
Carey Pierce (17 April 2006)
"Nothing will signal America’s resolve more thatrebuilding the twin towers stronger and one storytaller than the old towers. My brother, Dennis J Pierce,was killed after he entered Tower 2 to insure that hisco-workers left the building. They had been informedby PA that it would be safer to stay in the building. Itwasn’t. Now, we are told not to be audacious, to thinksmall and that that would be more fitting. It is not.The memory and the honor of those who died wouldbe best served by our emboldenment now. The twofloors that received the most direct impact of the twoairliners could be realistic museums in rebuilt towers.Families and friends, New Yorkers and Americans willbe best served by a bold rebuilding of the TWINTOWERS."
​
Victoria Mary Strong (24 April 2007)
"For 9/11 victims sake… build our twin towersnow! God knows it’s time & no other way tohonor 9/11 victims like my cousin John Charles Jenkins, friend FF Lincoln Quappe & tutor Jorge Morrone-Garcia. Terrorists took them down & we need to put them back up! Twin Towers are the only way to honor 9/11 victims. Anything less is a great dishonor to their memories. Stop the madness & make the twin towers your priority or forever holdyour peace. where there’s no twin towers, there’s no peace for their souls.:("
​
Darren Johnston (24 August 2012)
"The american security has tightened after thoseattacks on the World Trade Centers. Osama Bin Laden’s dead and his fellow men will not survive without him. This fight to rebuild the Twin Towersshould go ahead and shall go on for the people ofAmerica, tourists, and in memory of the familiesmostly. These new Towers are atrocious to thescenery of the Lower Manhattan Skyline. I can see it’sin memory of the families, and the people who diedbut just rebuild the twin towers because we could rethink to build it with security, safety and reassurance that these attacks will not happen again.Back in 2001 the security was loose, relaxed and not thought about. But today the world has become stronger and united over the years and become moresolid."
