After the Second World War, the economy experience enormously. A large increase in world trade was expected and the port of New York would benefit. Lawmakers came up with the idea to build an international or world trade centre. It thought that New York can better would be more able to competitive with other ports if all trading companies were placed under one roof. In 1946 was decided to make this. The World Trade Corporation was established and a committee was composed. The World Trade Corporation had plans to draft for a global trade centre. Architect John Eberson and his son Drew proposed to build 21 buildings. This was not a commercial office space but space for companies to exhibit their goods. This project cost 150 million U.S. dollars. A market survey showed that the project was uneconomic. The plan was repealed in 1949.

DMLA architects came up with the idea to build of the World Trade Centre in East River. In 1958 they presented the plan to the public as ‘the billion dollar plan’. Through financial support and political power could be realized World Trade Centre. When everyone agrees and support, it could e built. It was built in Lower West side instead of East River now. It was cheaper and accessibility would be better. The governor said: “At least we can see the damn thing”. Unfortunately, landowners were in protest. There were located many electronic stores. The store owners did not want this unique area would be lost. The judges decided in favour of the World Trade Centre in the name of public interest.

They chose another architect: the Japanese American architect Minoru Yamasaki. He suggested that three or four non-identical square towers to build. Later she came up with the idea to build two identical square towers, each with eighty floors. The contractor did a nice plan, but the towers offered too little office space. The architect changes the office space. So there was not only an office but also were the two tallest towers in the world.

After overcoming a few technical problems, presented he a new plan. The towers will consist of 110 floors. But was not enough. There were two buildings in the complex are added, the North and South Plaza Building.

The World Trade Centre was designed for businesses that drove trade worldwide. therefore were build a complex for the U.S. customs. And a 22 floors hotel for many guests, the Vista Hotel.

After the Second World War, the economy grew considerably. The expansion ofA world trade has benefitted the port of New York greatly. Soon after the war, politicians and the town administration proposed an international World Trade Center. The idea was that the port of New York would be better equipped to compete with other ports if trading companies were concentrated under one roof.
So, in 1946 a decision was reached to establish a corporation, the World Trade Corporation, and a committee was formed to implement the idea and draft a global trade center. Two architects, John Eberson and his son Drew, were commissioned to design a project for 21 buildings. These would not be laid out as commercial offices, but would offer space for companies to exhibit their goods. The estimated cost of the project was 150 million U.S. dollars. A market survey was conducted, but showed that the project was uneconomic, and consequently, the plan was rejected in 1949.

After this, DMLA architects came up with the idea to build a World Trade Centre on the East River. By 1958 they presented a two billion dollars plan to the public. The project would require heavy financial support and considerable political power. It was finally realised, and built on the Lower West side, rather than the originally proposed East River site.It would be less expensive here, and better accessible. The New York State governor remarked : “at least we can see the damn thing”.
It was a less fortunate thing that landowners were opposed.In the area, there were many electronic stores, and the store owners were not prepared to see this unique area destroyed. The proposed project was taken to court, and the judges finally decided in favour of the World Trade Centre, citing public interest.

Then, another architect was chosen : Minoru Yamasaki, a japanesde american. His design entailed three or four non-identical square towers to be build. In a later adoption of this idea, she proposed to construct two identical square towers, facing the Hudson River, each tower having eighty floors. The technicians produced detailed drawings, however, too little office space ensued. Therefore, the architect was prompted to make important changes to the concept, enlarge and augment office space and add base buildings. This way, the designs were adapted, to not just offer office space, but to do so in the form of the two tallest towers in the world.

Considerable technical problems needed to be overcome, and a new plan was drawn up. Now, the towers would have 110 floors. Even that would not be enough. Two more buildings were added to the complex - the North and South Plaza Buildings.

In summary, the World Trade Center was now designed as fucus for businesses that drive trade worldwide. For that reason, a facility for U.S. customs was also added, as well as a 22 floor hotel, for guests and visitors of the Trade Center,, the Vista Hotel.
