In a direct comparison, the Gothic cathedral-like architecture Yamasaki designed into the World Trade Towers becomes startling and unmistakable in hindsight. The question is: was he trying to communicate something deeper than a mere physical resemblance …? And if so - what was it and from whence did it find its inspiration - Freemasory? In addition to their obvious resemblance to the soaring Gothic cathedrals that so obviously impressed Yamasaki, what else was he trying to communicate through his choice of this particular design motif? Did he, like the Templar architects and Masons who built the astonishing cathedrals a thousand years before, also encode ultimate “Masonic secrets” in the Towers’ very forms …? Was Yamasaki a 33 degree Freemason as were his forebears in the secretive building trades and stone masons guilds - his predecessors throughout history? I have no doubts on that, inasmuch as it would have been expected of him as an integral aspect of his initiation into the elite circle of the building trades, i.e., architecture, which is controlled by the Freemasons, but itll take some digging to feret out all the details.
