incumbent michael bloomberg seemed antagonistic to the change , saying " i would like to see it stay the freedom tower , but it ' s their building , and they don ' t need me dumped on it . if they cannot rent the damn building by changing the name , i guess they ' re going to do that , and they usually , from a responsible point of view , should . from a patriotic point of view , is it going to do any difference ? " .
The Freedom Tower belongs to Michael Bloomberg.
