Even as the developer Larry A. Silverstein negotiates behind closed doors to relinquish part of the World Trade Center site, Mr. Silverstein had the resources and the passion to rebuild all the office towers at ground zero. Indeed, the developer, who leased the trade center, is ready to go to court if the city or the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey tries to prevent him from rebuilding the complex, said the representative, Janno Lieber. Mr. Silverstein has rejected the authority's proposal. The city has supported the Port Authority's position, saying Mr. Silverstein does not have enough money to complete the $7.3 billion job, because only $2.9 billion in insurance proceeds are available.
