Freedom tower final final final (no really it's final) design unveiled.

The latest in a series of designs for the "Freedom" tower in New York has been unveiled.
Unlike most other glass-clad office buildings, the Tower will appear clear because they will remove the iron, which tints glass green. Nice. So the cooling bill is going to be astronomical with no tint in the glass.
The tower will also be surrounded by groups of steps leading to the entrance, a large concrete security buffer zone and a series of thigh-high rectangular slabs (that look like tombstones) to guard against truck bombs.

Ah yes. Nothing says "culture of fear" like 140 feet of concrete and truck barriers surrounding something that's supposedly a beacon of resolve.

Way to go America. Yay. You Ess Ay.
