The buildings at Ground Zero are said not to be completed even in 30 years

New York - The construction of towers in Manhattan at the Ground Zero site, where the World Trade Center (WTC) was destroyed by terrorists, is at risk of being very prolonged, with buildings potentially not being fully occupied even after nearly thirty years. This arises from a confidential report from the New York Port Authority, which owns the Ground Zero site. Local media quoted from the report today.
    The Daily News and NY1 television reported that according to the report, one of the three planned towers, 71 stories high, will not be fully occupied before the year 2037, which is 36 years after the attacks that claimed the lives of about 3,000 people. Its construction is not expected to start before 2026.
    The main tower, which is set to become a new city landmark, the 541-meter tall One World Trade Center, whose construction has already begun, is not expected to be fully accessible before 2019. According to previous plans, it was supposed to be completed in 2013. The third tower is not expected to be fully completed before 2026.
    The report states that its pessimistic conclusions are primarily due to the ongoing economic crisis, which will significantly affect the demand for office space.
    All constructions planned for Ground Zero have faced major problems from the very beginning. Work has had to be suspended multiple times, plans for the site surrounding the former "Twin Towers" have changed, and the projects for almost all subsequent buildings have had to be revised.
