No. A new skyscraper is being built, which will be called Freedom Tower. See the Related Link below for the official website. An Islamic cultural center (not a mosque) is being constructed 2 or 3 blocks away from the site of the World Trade Center.
United StatesYes. Inherent to the rights we have in the United States is the freedom to practice one's own brand of religion on private property free from interference from the government or other citizens. Therefore, Muslims have the legal right to build a mosque on private property as long as the proper permits can be obtained. Whether the choice to build a mosque near the site of the World Trade Center is the right choice is another issue and that issue can certainly be debated.

It is not a mosque and it is not located at Ground Zero, so the term "Ground Zero mosque" is entirely inaccurate. The Park51 project (so named because of its address, 41-51 Park Place, which is two blocks away from Ground Zero) is a Muslim community center. Not a mosque. It will have a prayer space -- again, not a mosque -- which welcome those of all faiths. The Park51 project has not been cancelled. Groundbreaking is scheduled to begin in late 2011.

"Mosque" isn't the correct term for the planned structure near "ground zero" in NYC, although many people are calling it that. Plans are for an Islamic community center which will also have a prayer room. There are two camps, pro and con, for a center to be located that close to where the World Trade Center was attacked by terrorist Muslims but the reasons vary:Pro1. Freedom of Religion to build where they choose2. Muslims have always been in that area3. It will build "bridges" among the different faiths in that area4. Muslims were also killed in the attack5. Site not actual part of ground zeroCon1. Freedom of Religion not denied; there are more than 100 mosques in NYC2. That location is hallowed ground; they are still finding bone fragments3. The Imam has not denounced bin Laden, Hezbollah, other terrorist groups4. Sensitivity - wounds are still too fresh to build anything Islamic near there5. Ground zero - plane engine and debris from fallen towers landed on current structure's roof
