Trauma-san:
#1 - One soaring tower, 1776 feet tall, and several smaller steel towers.  Built by a studio in Berlin, responsible for the Jewish museum in berlin, and currently building the Denver Art Museum.  


-------------------------------------------------------------------------
#2 - Features 1 single tower, must taller than the original two.  Designed by Foster & Partners, out of London.  


-----------------------------------------------------------------------------

#3 - Features 3 buildings connected by walkways, and then 2 buildings on the side, connected by walkways. Designed by Meier Eisenman Gwathmey Holl , the same american firm that designed the Getty Center in L.A.  


-------------------------------------------------------------------------

#4 - This one is actually three seperate proposals by the same team.  It's a group called "THINK" that features international designers, including americans.  It's hard to tell what they're proposing here, though...


---------------------------------------------------------------------

#5 - Several soaring towers, fused together by Quasihelixial structures. Designed by an international team responsible for Japan's Yokohama International Port Terminal.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------

#6 - Includes twin towers, that reach 1400 feet tall, with a huge promenade in the center.  Designed by a husband and wife team, who did some of the original (and more scaled down) proposals.


---------------------------------------------------------------------------

#7 - Features 7 buildings, each about 80 stories high.  Designed by a local New York firm.

Personally, I gotta go with the first one, it's the only one that is truly inspiring to me.  

CWalker187:
I vote for whatever tower is the tallest.

Man, this is America. If you knock down our buildings, we are only going to rebuild them and make them even bigger.

Trauma-san:
The first one would be the tallest building in the world when done.  

Now_Im_Not_Banned:
I vote for the first one, since it's the tallest...But the second one and third one look dope as fuck as well...PeACe

King Tech Quadafi:
