"If we have learned anything from posting more than 3,000 proposals sent to us, which you can see on this site, it is this: Viewers have invested strong passion and considerable thought into their ideas. We have heard from people in all 50 states and 76 countries who feel enormously emotionally invested in what will follow -- whether they live in Adelaide, Australia, or Seattle, Washington.Response was lukewarm, at best, this summer when officials presented the first six rebuild proposals. Now that the first year of mourning has passed, and most national and international attention is looking ahead on what will rise in lower Manhattan, we will discover together what it takes to build the future while honoring the past."
