Building the World Trade Center and Twin Towers - 1 of 2

Uploaded by: 911veritas

Video Stream Description:
This documentary was made in 1983 by The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey (Part 1 of 2).
It contains footage of when the twin towers were constructed from the mid 60's through early 70's. 20 World Trade Center Facts at 01-Apr-2002 - Courtesy of Carl Taylor, more at... http://www.theharrowgroup.com/articles/20020401/WTC_facts.htm 1. The WTC opened in 1970 after 8 years of constru
ction. 2. The WTC was the dream of David Rockefeller, chairman of the Chase Manhattan Bank, and Nelson Rockefeller, former Governor of New York. 3. The Rockefellers wanted to name the towers after themselves, but the mayor of NY, John Lindsay, insisted on the World Trade Center. 4. The City
chose to build the WTC instead of building a new tunnel and large bridge over the Hudson River. 5. The World Trade Center was designed by architect Minoura Yamasaki. 6. According to Yamasaki, downtown Manhattan was the perfect place to erect the towers because there wasn't "a single building
worth saving in the neighborhood." 7. Owners of nearby buildings disagreed, and delayed demolition by three weeks with their protests. 8. Sixteen blocks were cleared to house the completed WTC. 9. More than 10,000 workers involved in building the complex. 10. More than 60 of them died dur
ing construction. 11. The excavation work displaced enough soil to create Liberty Park, where four 60-floor towers and four apartment buildings were constructed. *** Please note "Fact 11" is disputed - YT member "opusbeme" claims it should read Battery Park City !! *** 12. The WTC's foundations
were laid at 60 feet below ground level. 13. The complex covered 16 acres when finished. 14. In addition to the towers, five other office buildings made up the WTC complex The WTC had 12 million square feet of space. 15. Each floor was 50,000 square feet. 16. The buildings had their own ZIP
codes - 10047 and 10048. 17. The towers were designed to look like a futuristic sculpture. 18. The structure was revolutionary. Its main supports were external, lining the four corners of each tower. 19. Critics condemned the completed buildings as "boring." 20. Completed, the buildings wer
e 100 feet taller then the Empire State building.

But that doesn't make up for the loss of the two towers, and the other building that WTC building.

Seriously. ... ( 4 weeks ago by Elyacy916)

Seriously. Terrorists?
"No, they just can't!"
Do you really think terrorists have the technology and balls to opperate one of the worlds horrific and destructive demolitions of two gigantic towers that are built to resist impacts of multiple airline collisions? Each of those steel columns can easily withstand "Jet fuel".
Do some research clown.

its to late to rebuild now because of the freedom tower, at least in New York, they can always do another major city like LA, or San Francisco, or Dallas, or Chicogo, well you get my point

I bet when the WTC 7 was completed in 1987, people thought it would last for hundreds of years. but hey, its all being rebuilt, bigger and better than before. Theres 1WTC, 2,3,4, 5 and 7 WTC in the new masterplan, but no 6WTC as yet, which is stupid being as there was one. But a 80 storey tower next to the site might be 6WTC.

it's creepy to see that big empty land where the towers once stood (while they were being built)...and it looks exactly like that today..all empty

I agree! I think that TWIN TOWERS have to be rebuilt like they were before 9/11. I was growin' up dreaming to work inside WTC and I still want to realize my dream, even if I cried that sad day.
