The day of 9/11 changed the world in a single day. A world we think we know. It’s defining image is the collapse of the twin towers & the tragic death of innocent people inside.
The construction of the World Trade Center was an incredible breakthrough in skyscraper design. The latest in-building technologies allowed designers to go bigger and higher than anything the world had ever seen. Nothing else like this, had ever been built before since. And I think the beauty, the architecture beauty of the WTC is remarkable and it’s not easy to underestimate. The twin towers of the World Trade Center, completed in 1973, were for a time the tallest buildings in the world. They dominated the Manhattan skyline rising 110 stories high. The buildings were home to some of the world’s leading financial institutions. Each tower was 110 stories high.. Today, the WTC, had become an icon for success, ambition & Manhattan itself. We’ve become so familiar with it. And remarkably after all this time, it continues to inspire us all.
For more than a quarter of a century, the Center Towers stood like sentinels at the gates of the free world. But then came the 11th of September 2001 and in little more than 10 seconds, each of the WTC Towers was gone…
Years before 9/11, after the ‘93 bombing on the Towers, there had been clues that the attack on the WTC was a disaster waiting to happen. Despite improvements and security, after the 93 bombing, many people were convinced that the world trade center remained a target. The whole complex posed an unusual security risk, because of its symbolism, its size, its recognisability, the best know building in New York, the center or World Capitalism just steps away from the stock market. The day that many people had predicted, arrived on September 11th 2001.
It was 8:46 am when the first plane hit the North Tower (1) of the World Trade Center. In less than 2 hours from this moment, both towers of the WTC will be in ruins, and thousand of lives changed forever. From this moment onwards, no one was safe from attack by suicide bombers. Thousand innocent people were killed on both buildings, thousands were injured. It still not known how many people perished in this nightmare of collapsing steel and dust.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
Today, 20 years after 9/11 events, it might be wrong talking about anniversary, but we still and will forever remember what happened on that horrifying September morning in 2001 & we shall #neverforget all those lost on this day. The best lesson we are given, is never to lose our hope, strength and courage in life. 15 Septembers later, a view of the Manhattan skyline, on the site where the twin towers were stood, a new WTC has been constructed. The structural void created by the 911 attacks, has been filled. Now as the new site is being completed, there is only one question that defines years of effort. How can we prevent this from ever happening again.?
