I wonder if people would be pissed if they built a church 2 blocks away from the FBI building in Oklahoma City...Tim McVey was a Christian extremist...

I can accept treating Ground Zero itself as 'hallowed', though I do not think it should be. If we treat the surrounding area the same as GRound Zero, once you get outside the actual boundaries of where the towers stood, how do you quantify how far away is enough? That is what I was asking. How do you quantify 4 blocks being OK, but 3.5 blocks not OK? I really do not think that Ground Zero should be treated any differently that any other plot of land in NYC. But if they are going to, it should be limited to where the towers stood, and not extend a random number blocks in all directions.
