Memorial
Circle
- Erik Sieb Quebec, Canada
The antenna tip would be 1856 ft. high (560 m) and would
accommodate broadcasting and communication transmission facilities.
The roof top, at 1506 feet, would have a surrounding
open-air promenade and a helicopter landing pad.
The top deck would include an 800 room hotel, a convention
center, restaurants, boutiques, restroom and a panoramic observatory
(2 million sq ft.).
The building covering over 100 000 sq.ft at ground
level, would offer over 11 million sq. ft. of office space.
Three towers only.
The sky-bridges located at level 42 (450 ft.) and
level 76 (900 ft.) of each tower, the four square shaped sky-bridges
would increase security and facilitate traveling for tenants
and visitors
The memorial would give access (on each side) to two
glassed enclosed 40 000 sq.ft gardens. Located at the base
of the central tower, a 25 000 sq.ft. memorial dedicated to
the ones who perished on September 11.
The Memorial Circle would connect the surrounding
street grid thru a traffic circle. The three lane traffic
circle would surround a “below traffic level” park, providing
a peace and quiet place to contemplate “in silence” the voids
of the lost towers.
At the base of the central tower, the original sphere
would be placed at the exact same spot where it used to be.
Large basin with spectacular fountains, trees and flags would
complete the landscape.
