Greetings Brothers, Sisters and FFN family and friends,
I was reading a news article today and I see where the new property owners of what to me has become a sacred place where 343 brothers made the ultimate sacrifice along with countless americans and visitors to our country, is in some way being changed to down play the importance of that historic site. According to the article leasing space in a non-completed building has the new owners edgy, and to lease more units changing the name from Freedom Towers to 1 World Trade Center will somehow down play the history associated with ground zero making it more attractive to perspective lessor's, thus improving the odds that new tennants will flock to the new building. What about you do you think they should change a befitting name chosen by years of work by the tower committee and the public or without a fight let the new folks change the name back to its original postal designation?. I lost a good friend from N.Y.F.D. Rescue 1 that day, and I think he and the others deserve a place of recognition, don't you?.
Yours in the Fire Service,
R.C.Baker
