Mr. Silverstein, backed by billions of dollars in insurance money he received from his lease on the twin towers, has
already constructed one office building adjacent to the site. So far, he has not announced a major tenant. If he continues
to demand that the site provide anything like the 10 million square feet of office space lost with the twin towers, he will be
serving his own needs more than the community's or even, at this point, the markets. The World Trade Center site must
be a treasured public space and a critical piece of a renewed community, not just another huge commercial development
looming over a few public amenities.
Given the author's tone and use of persuasive language, what do you infer is his attitude toward the developer of
Freedom Tower?
a. He really thinks highly of him.
b. He is very pleased with the development of the tower.
c. He thinks the developer is greedy and selfish.
d. He thinks the developer doesn't know anything about building skyscrapers.
