Actually Brian, the two WTC towers were over 100 feet taller than the Empire State building. The WTC towers were # 5 & 6 in the world's tallest buildings...the ESB was #7. (# 2, 3, and 4 in the US, respectively)
I could see rebuilding maybe one of them. But eventually, it would only be right to create a memorial to commemorate the lives of those who perished...something I don't personally feel would be achieved by rebuilding two 110-story towers.
