If all goes according to plan, today we find out who will develop (or demo) the former World Trade Center Building. News broke at the beginning of the year that requests for proposals were being accepted for the vacant, city-owned building at the foot of Canal Street, and it's been the talk of the town since. The deciding committee is a quiet bunch, but who do you think will win the golden ticket?
· James H. Burch's plan for a Valencia Hotel, luxury rentals, music clubs, and tourist attractions?
· Will Gatehouse's "Save The WTC" signs that sprung up all over town ensure its plan for a W Hotel and residences? Ferris wheel plans are a no-go, in case you missed it.
· Or will the Tricentennial Consortium's demolition deal go through with plans for a public green space?
· All WTC Coverage [Curbed NOLA]
