Donald Trump, escalating his war against the "empty skeleton" Freedom Tower, will offer his own design for a rebuilt 111-story "World Trade Center" at Ground Zero at a press conference tomorrow.

"We have a beautiful model that has been built, a very big model," Trump told The Post yesterday. "We took the original World Trade Center design, brought it into the modern age, made it more beautiful than ever before, made it one story taller, made it higher lined, and took out the architectural weaknesses that were there. "We also strengthened the building internally so that what happened on 9/11 could never happen again," Trump added.

--Just what I pictured for the site. Some gawdy building, splattered with gold, with Trump's name all over it.

You Said

Let's hope not. I always got the impression that Ivana was the one who was over-the-top with the gold and glitz.
