WTC Freedom Tower: Pataki's Pit

This project is nowhere and must be completely redesigned. Supposedly, security concerns addressed by NYPD one year ago were never addressed. Plus, the building as designed cannot be built--the off-center spire on the top cannot be supported by the lightweight structure below it. That's what happens when you hire an unqualified architect such as Libeskind.

The NY Post, whose Steve Cuozzo has has led the media in reporting the WTC redevelopment problems is killing Pataki on this one. Pataki, who thinks he is a national figure, took personal ownership of this redevelopment. Well, he is not a national figure, and the redevelopment is going nowhere fast.
