They knew that and should admit it was deliberate. I do like the idea of linking buildings in this way though and - 9/11 aside - the cloud form suggests something tall and heavenly.

Having been in NYC that day, and running from clouds smoke as Number 7 went down, all I can see are the twins collapsing. Sorry. Thumbs down. If 911 never happened, I might see clouds.

Even without the 9/11 impact, the towers from a distance look like they have grown a cancerous growth. I wouldn't want that taking up my cityscape. Great idea, not so great execution.
