Notre Dame Is Burning!

Last I saw they were at seven hundred million dollars!

It would take billions to rebuild, and I'm not sure what the point would be.

Well....Macron wants it completed within five years.

It's difficult. All of this stuff like stained glass from way back. How do you re-do that? But mankind has a nature of rebuilding after wars and disasters. It's never the same but....
As far as $$ this is $700M THE DAY AFTER.

I say rebuild. Its a show of defiance or at least perseverance.

I was mad that they didn't rebuild the trade center exactly how it was before 9/11

I wasn't aware that the crown of thorns was kept there.I figured something like that would be locked away in the Vatican in Italy.

One reason was it had design flaws

Noone wants the Twin Towers, and noone wants some shoddy replica of Notre Dame. I get the defiance thing, but why pour money into something noone wants? Build something new, better in any way you can.

Twin towers had design flaws ? It withstood an explosions in the lower levels. I doubt many buildings would survive a passenger jet.

I dont know of anyone from NY saying they didnt want the towers rebuilt. Only they didnt want the monstrosity

bell towers, which are the oldest part are fine, worth rebuilding the cath, which was built in the 1900s, reading this thread feel like I waked into a conspiracy theory board site.
