The owner of the World Trade Center has abandoned the timetable for rebuilding work at the site of the 9/11 attacks, saying it was "not realistic".
New dates for the completion of a memorial, skyscrapers and a transit hub are expected to be issued in September.
It is unclear if the centrepiece Freedom Tower, will now be scaled back.
The tower, intended as a replacement for the destroyed Twin Towers, had been scheduled for completion in 2006 and then 2011, but the latest estimate is 2013.
At 1,776ft (541m) it would be the tallest building in the US.
Maybe we should reconsider the giant crystal spiral airplane target now.

maybe we should reconsider the whole thing all together. the design looks rather "alienating", especially compared to the rest of the proposed skyscrapers around the world.
