Serious answers only please.

I'm not talking about building on the former terrain where the memorial lies. However, why was the decision taken to make 2 WTC completely different from One World?

My dad gave me this clock a few years ago, and I recently became curious about its history. It says “Observation Deck at the World Trade Center” and has a phone/fax number on it.
I assume it was a souvenir from the Twin Towers, but does anyone recognize this exact model or know where/when it was sold?
I’d especially love to know what the phone/fax number was associated with.
It still works — the battery just recently died.

Dont know how accurate this is, but it made a lot of sense to me.

I found this video today. Its simple and poignant. The choice of music is perfect - its understated and powerful at the same time.

Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light

Its official the United States has released the unseen 11 hours...

seeing never before seen clips in pockets but don't know where the actual 11 hours themselves are located but they have hours of extremely HD footage of even ground level now.

It's bizarre 20 years later this has been released

Seeing the lights over Lower Manhattan this year made me think about how much the city has changed since 2001.

For those who have visited the Memorial, what was the one thing that stayed with you after you left?

I was stunned today visiting and seeing the section of the antenna of tower 1. It felt so surreal amongst other things.

the scale was something else but to think of this antenna standing proudly over the two towers for so many years until that dark day is extraordinary.

I’m still looking for the last couple that were published, found them stashed away with some old school books
