Ground Zero in Lower Manhatten's Commercial Disdrict in New York, which was once the proud land mark of the city known as twin blocks of famous WTC, otherwise recognised as the Freedom Tower after the 9/11 infamous incident, is getting a reshape and developing fast for a new life in the form of future World Trade Center with a carpet area of 2.6 million sq.ft at a cost of $3.3 billion @ $1269 a sq.ft in 105 floors to a height of 1776 ft, as the tallest building in the city.
It is a joint venture of Durst Organisation(a leading real estate developer) and Port Authority of New york and New Jersey.
In a place like new York this project work took so many years to fructify after a lot of uncertainty in between. All is well that ends well
In major cities of the world there seems to be a competition to build the tallest building. Why don't we Indians ever venture into such a competition? Are we short of engineering skill or wherewithal or the political will to undertake a similar project in any of our cities?
