Donald Trump has weighed in on the design of the Freedom Tower, a 1,776-foot building intended to replace the World Trade Center's twin towers:

I must say, I'm impressed. I just assumed it would be an 1,800-foot statue of The Donald. That said, I'm skeptical that Manhattan can absorb another 8 million square feet of office space. But time will tell.
