I sure hope the Japanese make it strong enough so that a couple Boeings don't bring it down. Looks like a shitload of people would be living and working there.

I saw on the History channel that the WTC was designed to not topple from comtemporary planes of the time (707, 727, etc) but the newer 767s were too darn big.
