* Plan van Libeskind gekozen voor Ground Zero
 Gisteren werd bekend gemaakt dat Daniel Libeskind [zie foto bij de presentatie] gekozen is als architect voor de nieuwbouw rond Ground Zero in New York. Uit het lovende persbericht: ' New York Governor George E. Pataki and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg today joined the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation and Port Authority of New York & New Jersey to announce the selection of Memory Foundations as the design concept for the World Trade Center site.
The inspirational design by Studio Daniel Libeskind leaves portions of the slurry wall exposed as a symbol of the strength and endurance of American democracy, while reserving a majestic setting for the memorial and museum in the area known as the bathtub. A 1,776 feet tall spire creates a powerful new skyline for Lower Manhattan, while the bustling activity down below reaffirms life in the aftermath of tragedy.'
