I guess if the smoke was made of Legos sure.

people are lame for getting all uptight about this. Even if it were made to resemble the towers, wouldn't it be more of a tribute and reminder.... It was supposed to resemble a skyscraper above the clouds, people read into stuff way too much. I thought it was cool

What?

Quote :

"The designers of the towers, Dutch architectural firm MVRDV, have responded to the controversy by quickly publishing an apology in English. “It was not our intention to create an image resembling the attacks,” the designers insist, “nor did we see the resemblance during the design process.”"
