The World Trade Center's "footprint" will remain in tact in the redesign to be unveiled today. The bus terminal that was planned there is gone (possibly will be relocated to Battery Park City), and according to LMDC's Roland Betts, "The Libeskind plan . . . is 100 percent intact."
Additionally, shopping center developer Westfield is now no longer going to be involved manage the retail area; Westfield had signed a deal to lease WTC space prior to September 11, 2001. Earlier, we debated whether or not they'd be able to work it out in a Libeskind design.
