Rebuilding the World Trade Center Site

This book examines issues related to the rebuilding of the World Trade Center. Students will learn why the process is complicated, and how better leadership would impact it. Presented are two sides to another debate; that the rebuild is a disgrace, or, is it a treasure? Essays also cover why one building was seen as a replacement for two, and how the name of the new building is seen as being controversial. Two essays debate whether the world trade center ground is hallowed or religious. The book also discusses the health issues that were associated with the collapse and the subsequent months afterward for those who worked and reported in the area. Includes primary and secondary sources from a variety of perspectives; eyewitnesses, scientific journals, government officials, and many others.
