Need a place to stay in Manhattan? Try the World Center Hotel, we hear the views of ground zero are fantastic. That, sadly, is the pitching of the new hotel, which opened last month. Several of the rooms have wall-size glass windows that look out on to the construction site. The vice president of the company that owns the World Center Hotel says "People choose to be here because they want to be close to it. They want to feel it, they want to celebrate. They want to remember. We have a very accessible view on it." The hotel’s Web site uses memorial images from September 11.
