El hombre que revolucionó al mundo entero, aquel que desafío al cielo mismo y llegó más alto que las nubes con edificios
El hombre que debe estar revolcándose al ver qué su peor temor se volvió realidad, edificios de cristal incluso en el área de su antiguo máximo logro

God I bet he's "rolling in his Grave" Though he passed in the later 80s
It's madding whats built there now And disgraceful

They should’ve rebuilt the towers, taller, larger and stronger. 1,600 ft with a 401 ft spire on top of the north tower. Have the spire be similar to the one at the Empire State Building, an observation platform at the height of 1,973 ft. The year the original wtc was completed. That would’ve been so much better than what’s there now.
