*************************************** CNN Presents: Classroom Edition "16 Acres: The Debate Over Ground Zero" This week's CNN Presents: Classroom Edition is "16 Acres: The Debate Over Ground Zero." Be sure to set your VCRs - the program will air commercial-free on the CNN network Monday, October 14, from 4:00-5:00 a.m. ET. On September 11, 2001, nearly 3000 people lost their lives when hijacked planes struck the World Trade Center and the Twin Towers came crumbling down. What was left after the terrorist attack-beyond the grief and disbelief-was a 16-acre hole in the heart of Lower Manhattan, the site of some of the most expensive real estate in the world. Almost instantly, a debate ensued over how the land should be used. Victims' families, neighborhood associations, experts and Trade Center leaseholder Larry Silverstein all have ideas about what should happen to the 16-acre patch of land. Some envision a memorial; others foresee more skyscrapers and business opportunities; and others see a chance to enhance the neighborhoods in Lower Manhattan. CNN Presents goes into the streets of New York City to look at the fight over the future of Ground Zero.
