The Daily Intelligencer, edited by Jesse Oxfeld and Michael Idov, reports that something is up with the development of the World Trade Center.
They say the Port Authority is going to put the Freedom Tower up, then do what countless numbers of real estate speculators do – flip it. They quote the Metro as saying By its completion in 2011, the skyscraper may be up for sale, say New York and New Jersey governors Spitzer and Corzine.
There is no doubt there are deals being cut everyday on this property. There is widespread speculation about who will rent the millions of square footage in the upper floors of the Freedom Tower. Claims by the promoters of Lower Manhattan real estate who say vacancies are down. It may be true; it may be hype.
Stay tuned.

Of course, there will be roll overs in ownership of this building, which is why it is so essential that the original intention for this structure contains the memorial as well as intellectual and inspirational constructs.
