@@tomknox7425 I personally don't agree though you may be right, I would naturally miss it if we moved on from the current style I think. Things aren't just the same I think. However, Brutalist architecture from the 60s/70's still looks somewhat depressing to me and hasn't gained any charm so why should I think a glass tower that looks somewhat soulless to me would?

@@PeteS_1994 Yeah good point. But I think people never really fell in love with the brutalist architecture ever :D I agree that these glass towers tend to look soulless but The One World Trade Center for example looks pretty beautiful.

But New York and these types of new buildings are so slender and tall I just so incredible and just watching the progress of how they're built and the information about it that you guys present just makes my day.

When the twin towers were built between the 1960's and the 1970's, they did add a concrete core. Steel doesn't do very well in fire and maybe that is why the twin towers collapsed on 9/11. But the twin towers were designed to withstand an impact of a Boeing 707 aircraft traveling 400 mph. The airplanes that hit the twin towers on 9/11 were 767s.
