Other finde dining mid range options that have well known owners and good reputations:
Nougatine (John George's more moderately priced and located across from central park in Columbus circle) In this vain ABC kitchen (another Jean George's spot is cool if you find yourself in the Union Square area)
Ai fiori (Michael White, AMAZING Italian restarauntuer and great atmosphere not far from your hotel in times square)
Bar Baloud (Daniel Baloud's less stuffy place, while I personally don't mind Daniel his much more formal spot I can honestly say I have never had a bad meal here and the quality is not lacking)
Dirt Candy ( If anyone in your group is Vegetarian or gripes about no options this is a great compromise, I typically don't eat a meal without meat, but as a ton of my good friends are vegetarians I can recommend this place as one of the best compromises for both meat eaters and vegetarians, as even though it is vegetarian the owner does an amazing job of cooking with great technique and flavors)
Bubbi's and Clinton Street Baking Company ( NYC is a brunch place, I hate to say it but I barely ever cook breakfast on weekends so find myself most weekends in the city with friends and these are two great options, always packed but worth the wait, not a "scene" type place just great breakfast)
As far as the " freedom tower" technically yes but I guess during the long process to actually build it it is more commonly referred to as "One World Trade" by most New Yorkers now. I work 5 minutes away and can't remember the last time someone called it anything other than that. It's just one of this weird things that kind of happened over time. But yes I think you will find the experience of the memorial worthwhile.
