if they rebuilt it, would anyone feel safe being in it?

Yeah that's what I was thinking. I would think they would have a hard time finding tenants for another version of the WTC. (in fact, I predict that famous skyscrappers are going to have a bit of a problem retaining tenants once current leases come due)
Think about it. If you were the head of an accounting firm, law firm, or brokerage, would you choose to lease the top floors of a new WTC? If you were a big company looking for such a firm to handle all of your accounting, legal, or brokerage needs, would you choose the firm at the top of a terrorist target or one out in the suburbs? This last attack wiped out entire firms. There are going to be years of lawsuits involving lost information and expertise. Would you want your businesses' most important info and people that know it intiminately to dissapear in one fell swoop? As a client, you'd have to make trips to that firm on a fairly regular basis, would you want to do that? I doubt it.
