2. We took pictures from the Observation Deck
oh, at least 20 years ago. I have spent the last two hours trying to find them, although I am not sure if we took still or video. Gotta find those.

4. I've seen a couple of programs lately on the
design and construction of 1WTC and I think it's fantastic...the whole site is, as far as I'm concerned.

Thanks for posting!

:)

5. I was watching the tower tonight from my town (we are at the edge of the Hudson).
There is an italian feast on the waterfront every year at this time. Ten years ago I was watching the fireworks with the Towers in the background and thinking what a magical night it was. I made a point of going tonight to relive that evening. The new building is nice, but it's not the same. That Saturday morning I had met the husband of a coworker, by Tuesday he was dead. Tommy worked at Cantor Fitzgerald, he was only 31. My tiny town lost 53 people, more than any other city in NJ.

I was coming out of the PATH train inside the North Tower on that fateful morning. The first plane had already hit the bldg. Many memories of that day, not many good. Although very grateful to be alive. The second plane crashed across the street from where I was walking. No image has captured what we on the ground saw at that moment.

:(
