Once such legislation/regulations pass, what would be next? What if, a few years from now, a majority of Americans start calling for laws that forbid statutes and monuments that pay tribute to the CSA and those who fought for it?
(FWIW, in my experience, a good way to derail a project is to push the issue of parking requirements.)

Oh those of us who live or have lived in NY know what an issue that is. No doubt they have planned for that with undergound parking. Here is one to think about....the noise pollution. How long with the "call to prayer" be played over loudspeakers and how often until the local populace gets fed up with the disruption to their lives. You are not even suppose to honking your car horn in the city.
But putting that aside, I do not see this Tower of Terror being built. You have the unions to contend, you have the FDNY/NYPD/Port Authority who lost brothers/sisters on 9/11, hell, you even have the mob to deal with. If they make any progress on building, it won't last. And I hope it doesn't!!! I hope with every board that gets nailed up, it gets burned down! With any concrete that gets poured, it gets vandalized.
