Guess a Dubai collab soon? Mega Projects and Mega biceps... Freds looking like hes been hittin the gym

You two should do a collaboration on worlds top gyms!

Uncle mikes interested in architecture?

This was one of the best ones yet, blown away by the quality, detail, and through working knowledge. This is something I could literally see on major networks like CNN.

It's a great channel, but he let himself down in this video by trying to sell us the most blatant hoax in history, as real. That face he pulled at 9:14 is just embarrassing. Freem&s0n Fred shouldn't have included that.

Oh ya well I've been a fan for a decade!

I couldn't agree more.

Nah, it's bollox!

How many skyscrapers does NY need? I mean most of them are half empty, nobody can even live in NY coz of the insane property prices that are kept artificially high for both residents as well as businesses, the city is a cesspool of crime, murder and woke mentally insane people and politics, most of the working class and rich are moving out as a result of it and the city is basically an empty shell of it's former self. It's not anymore the place like Home Alone 2 where you want to spend your vacation as Kevin McCallister.

I KNOW!!!

...level of quality...

Concur!

Have a think about the original Building 7 and then couple it with the U.K.'s Boris Johnson saying "Let's get Brexit done."

Eh a twin to ONE WTC would be nice

@@ajplays7241that would be cool but i don’t think the foot print would allow for it

They don't will made twins again (another one equal the Freedom Tower)

Sure they can There’s a construction called retrofitting or you can do a skinny building that can look “mistakenly” like twins but not actually being twins if that makes sense so where we could have twin shadows casting in the city and also Make it look like twins from facing the site from jersey

Nah, I hate the slated diamonds. It should be similar to 1WTC to call back to the twins.

It will be incomplete for the rest of the ages.

probably for the better to be honest, NYC real estate is already way overpriced

I still wished that they made two 112 storied freedom towers (with the current design of course).

Seriously, I was in 7th grade when the towers fell. This is crazy lol

Rebuild was ruined ages ago by the slick, generic Freedom Tower. And one always should keep in mind that Twin Towers occupancy was less that 50% in 2001, i.e. replacing the square footage lost made zero commercial sense.

ironic that he dares call them "iconic" if even ney yorkers themselves have no idea on what is going on there

@Kissvag Ina How do you know what I have done or not done? I kept up with it for years, just not lately, after a while it faded away into the background like most things do in ones life.

@Kissvag Ina tf

@Kissvag Ina what crawled up your ass and died?

@@elgreco75 me too

The bad thing is that Companies in Finance and Law Firms are not interested in the building. That leaves us the Tech, Media and E-commerce companies who don't like the 2006 Norman Foster design.

I have two views of New York in my office - can't see WTC in either of them - it's behind the Empire State so blocked from view.

One of the most iconic buildings ever.

Imagine how traumatic that would be for the families of the victims. Or even for the survivors. That might be one of the underlying issues for why it's not being done.

No cause then the bad guys just know how to bring them dowb

From someone that worked the sight I can tell you we have had mixed emotions on if and how it should have been built. The original to us just means resiliency and strength. That even though we have fallen we came back up the same but stronger. But then we also feel we need to leave well enough alone. So many souls are there that must be left alone to rest and realize that it’s where we go to remember all whom perished there.

Me too ❤

Me too Little french guy in French county... I'd open Google earth to see when there were updates lol...

Funny because when I was a kid before the internet I acquired a map of NYC from an old National Geographic magazine and explored the streets. Huge NY obsession as a kid.

When I was a kid I dreamed that there was something like the internet, I had to look up pictures of city skylines in dictionaries and other books. Made drawings of the skylines from the books.

Me too. I always look upto cities across the world especially New York.

It’s easy to explain the diamonds, it Has to be, the chosen people control the diamond industry, why not flaunt it! I would not buy a diamond if my life depended on it. A piece of glass can be made to look better

@@steveperreira5850 bro what.

@@steveperreira5850 a piece of glass isn't nearly indestructible.

@@TheAnnoyingBoss a diamond isn't nearly indestructible it's actually quite easy to shatter a diamond. Hitting it with a hammer can probably shatter it

@@huwdte technically you could shatter a diamond with a hammer but it is not easy it is actually very difficult and in most cases it won't do anything. Too shatter it you need a diamond with inclusions and internal weakness and you have to hit it with enough force and in the right spot for it to shatter. You're on the internet bro... use it 🤷‍♂️

Yup, that about sums it all up. Especially the biceps part....... 😲😱

building amongst the blood and bone

@@blu3_enjoy i searched through blood and bone on 9/11 looking for my brother He was in northern Canada.....

Oh the drama! And what about the bumblebees?

Think about it this way, if you were told on 9/12/2001 that it wouldn’t be rebuilt by 2022…. Everyone would have been outraged.

You could have just rebuilt the Twins, taller, stronger and safer somewhere else on the 16 acre site. But it just ended up in a debacle due to megalomaniacs like Silverstein and the Port Authority wanting it "their" way.

me too!

I feel like Two World Trade would’ve been built faster if it was A. Closer to One WTC and b restored the “Twinning” aspect

No doubt don’t know why his head looks out Inside the wtc

Totally agree. It gives off a timeless look; even gives me chills of sorts.

Yeah, I like the original 2WTC diamond columns and slanted roof.

I want the original back

Concur. The original design for the new 2 World Trade Center still looks the best…BY FAR. It’s a very elegant, modern design that is timeless in it’s design. It would never look old.

Before the 2WTC design was released, and before the freedom tower design was chosen, I drew a really similar design for a high school assignment, except it was 3 diamonds, and linked like the Petronas towers. I was so happy when I saw the 4 diamond design, and so disappointed that it still hasn't been built

I don’t like it. It should be very similar to either the original 2WTC or the current 1WTC to mirror the twin tower silhouette. They could also do an outdoor observation deck on the roof if the go with a different design like the original 2WTC, which 1WTC really lacks.

​​​@@ArkSucksAtGamesI agree. The site is a memorial so why even make it look different? I like the old one too but I'd like it more if it looks likes that current WTC1

Why?? You didn’t help design, pay, or build it. Stick with your selling cars and leave the skyscraper jobs to the geniuses

@@M21655 lmao what the geniuses

@@M21655 A genius would leave the site alone and keep it just ONE WTC

Ny needs no new buildings for offices esp now that such a larger portion of office workers refuse to return to working 5 days a week. As a NYC resident I can ‘t see how NY will recover until that changes? So many empty businesses these days.

@@M21655 Where would the funds be coming from???

This is more of “Brother towers” or “Cousin Towers”

Good

Could engine fuel burning on top floors bring the whole megastructure down in a few seconds to the point of absolute obliteration, leaving only fine rubble? (and that's including all those beams!) Just curious about the point of view of an expert who was actually there on the building site and who knows his stuff. I understand if you can't be open about it, assuming you still work with the same people.

Very cool!

It must've been extremely surreal working in the bottom of that pit for the first time

@@earlpipe9713 It was very emotional in the beginning. Even years later it still affects me sometimes.

Yeah I agree, I’d personally like that the best. Shit I thought they should just…rebuild the two towers exactly how they were. But I understand why that wasn’t ideal. Second best would be to just…build two identical towers. One with the spire one without. The Diamond one looks heat. But let’s be honest, two identical would be the best looking-in my opinion.

Exactly, it’s a no brainier, 20 years of 3 separate redesigns, and still no anchor tennant. People want a replica of wtc1. The answer is staring them in the face and would be more attractive to tenants.

That would be the best solution and keep everyone happy/satisfied imo

I don't think they want the appearance of twin towers on the site anymore for obvious reasons. Also, WTC1 has already been designed to symbolically represent the original two buildings, it's supposed to look like the twin towers merged together. Following that design philosophy have a second identical tower makes no sense. It would be like saying "here is where the quad towers used to stand, all 4 of them identical"

Building another set of twin towers would honestly in my opinion show the world that we have not moved on and that we still want things as they were, I think 1 WTC is fine as it is and the diamond tower would complement it but that's my opinion on it.

Awww you were too late to the kiss ass train and senpai didnt notice you, try harder next time.

That's basically whats happening still, but they're not all going to look the same.

Too “wild” and “zany” for backward America.

I totally agree the hodge podge of skyscrapers without any coherence ruined the fitting masterplan by Libeskind!

less bim is better, we need to develop cities for people, and not for the banking scum.

Yeah I hope Lucky Larry hasn't lost too much money through all this. Mustn't be cheap having all that prime real estate with nothing on.

They F*** up this project since day 1 with not putting up the twin towers as they were the skyline is horrible now the twins gave it some decency

I’ve been quietly hoping it would Be sites to new Twin towers since the Angle from 2 and 5 would restore the skyline in that part

The process actually starts by paying off union bosses and then arranging for the labor union to skim 27% off the cost of the project.

It is like watching a grift in action. Oh wait, it is.

Participation in an event that Produces nothing is not my idea of Progressive thinking. Too many people involved in the Planning will Provide too many Perspectives & Possibilities to Pursue any Potential Progress. I'm a wordsmith, by the way....just practicing my own profession as a scribe of sorts. But the Premise holds true...Too many chefs spoil the cuisine, & too many architects can destroy the vision of one designer. When we stop trying to compete on the world stage; & INSTEAD focus on what's valuable & vital here, now, in this present age, at this point in time... ...then we'll accomplish so much more than "ANY #" of CORP board meetings that are rich in "CONVERSATION" but poor in actual "COMMITMENT" TO A CAUSE There are too many "CONVERSATIONS" being had by the likes of Kamala Harris...she's constantly wanting to convene a conversation...real results are not on the agenda...only "CONVERSATIONS" where the facilitator says "Let's Talk..." about this situation. Same is true with CORP entities who want their name on the latest innovation in building design...they all want their legacy to be... "I PLAYED A PART IN THE CONSTRUCTION OF THIS BEAUTY" People of all genders, races, religions or professions want to be known for the "BIGGEST EDIFICE, OBELISK, OR PHALLIC SYMBOL": Hence the "NUMBER" of stories (as in inches or victories or cars in one's collection) is vital to the design of a power structure on the stage at hand. Instead of branching out on their own and doing some real good...TODAY...they all dream of the day when the plaque is hung in it's place of prominence and they can declare their work is done...after 25 years. In the meantime...all those "low income" folks who could have been dwelling in an older building, but one of pragmatic use today...wait, and wait, and die, and wait some more...as their children grow up on the streets waiting for some CORP BOARD to come to consensus and "START" building a "work of art" that is designed with themselves in mind. All the while touting their objective as "LOW INCOME HOUSING"... ...words alone are worthless in the lives of those whose rely on them to be true. Let's start really developing our communities...Community Development isn't all about CORP/Commercial needs..it's about the whole of the community who resides within it's COOPerative boundaries.

They should just build the identical one , that would be symbolic and great tribute to the original WTCs

Do you think they will ever be built

And brought me home as a pilot that avoids buildings and terrorists. It's a tough job But somebody has to do it.

@@ivy_47 compared to Asia and North America that’s not a lot. I said “very little” meaning not a lot in comparison to other wealthy parts of the world. IE the US Canada Japan China etc.

@@seanpruitt6801 Yeah that’s because European cities have centuries old city centres. Most cities have skylines with huge cathedrals and buildings from the Middle Ages. Towers would absolutely not fit into that.
