Started off this week with a Working Harbor Committee trip on September the tenth, whereupon we observed the so called Tribute in Lights rising alongside the Freedom Tower (aka one World Trade) from the place of national remembrance and mourning. Here’s what I saw.

  1. Nice photographic juxtaposition of what was with what is. However, I’ll say it again, the Freedom Tower is aesthetically disappointing. It visually bleeds into the surrounding architecture. The WTC Towers were of unique design.
