Security concerns will not stop the construction of the 9/11 memorial, which is scheduled to begin construction this Spring.
"There may be some fine-tuning, but I don't see anything major happening that will dramatically change the design," said James Kallstrom.
He said the memorial has been scrutinized by security consultants and the NYPD.
"We have the best minds working on this and we will bring in the best products and procedures when it's all said and done," Kallstrom said.
Meanwhile, Con Ed lost a lawsuit over the destruction of its power substation at 7WTC on 9/11
because the City was found not negligent in its design of fuel tanks that supplied power to the OEM bunker in the building.
Manhattan federal Judge Alvin Hellerstein found the city was not liable because OEM's fuel system was constructed in good faith.
The city has denied that the tanks' design and construction was poor.
The judge's ruling, however, allows Con Edison and its insurers' to pursue claims of negligence against the Port Authority, which owns the land beneath the tower, and the owners of the building.
