The two tallest buildings that were part of New York City's World Trade Center were designed in the 1960s, and completed in 1972 (North Tower) and 1973 (South Tower).
They were the centerpiece of a vision to provide office space and attract businesses from around the world to lower Manhattan, which had been lagging behind the economic powerhouses of midtown Manhattan, including Times Square and Park Avenue. For two years, until the opening of the Sears Tower (now called Willis Tower) in Chicago, the North Tower also held the record as the tallest building in the world.
Because the government wanted to make Manhattan a better looking place.

no not yet
The twin towers were built in 1973.
yes ,the government is remaking the world trade center and the twin towers
None: The twin towers were not re-built, a new set of buildings and memorials were built instead.
There are currently no plans to rebuild the Twin Towers. Instead, One World Trade Center is being built at the site of the original Twin Towers. It is scheduled to open in late October 2014.
to honor the towers when they were there and to keep 9/11 in rememberance
No, they haven't built anything in place of the twin towers yet, but that doesn't mean they never will.
They are being built again.

The Twin Towers are not being rebuilt. A single tower is being built -- called Freedom Tower -- which will be the new World Trade Center. Its address will be the same as the North Tower: 1 World Trade Center.
