We already knew of the Freedom Tower, but today we got a fuller idea of what will take residence at Ground Zero:
How gorgeous; how awe-inspiring.
And even while I feel it's a little out of place in the rectangular, utilitarian NY skyline…
...I’ll get over it.
What a powerful statement in the form of glass and metal: 20th century citadels are standing guard while four phoenixes rise from the ashes of unspeakable horror to illuminate the 21st century with hope, progress, and humanity's newest attempt to be who we are trying to be.
I approve.
