Memory Foundations places at the center of the New World Trade Center a large memorial to the victims of the September 11th Attacks . Surrounding the memorial will be five large office buildings arranged in an ascending spiral upward from the southeast of the site. The spiral's pinnacle — the tallest building at the site — will be the 1776 foot (541 m) Freedom Tower , designed by David Childs. Also included will be a transit station designed by Santiago Calatrava , a museum being designed by architectural firm Snøhetta , a cultural complex being designed by Frank Gehry , and various parks and public spaces. The plan aims to fully replace the 10 million square feet (1 km&2) of office space lost on September 11th, to memorialize the victims of the attacks, and to revive New York City's Economy and Skyline . If schedules are met, the plan should be completed by the year 2015 . Detailed information about the Memory Foundations site plan can be seen here . SEE ALSO
