I'm a huge Gaudi fan so this is very interesting to me. Apparently Guadi had designed plans for a building on the WTC site before the WTC was built. Now, with the memorial competition coming up, the plans will be entered for consideration.

"It's 77 years since Gaudi died — a lot of the other proposals are literal ego trips, but here is a way that everyone can be involved in a historical project from around the world," Laffoley said."

I think that's very exciting

I think Salvador Dali shoulda had a stab at it ;)

It probably would have been shaped rather phallically.
