I remember watching this documentary when it aired for the first time... i was only 12 years old but i distinctly remember one of the architects saying the towers could take a hit from a passenger plane and still be structurally safe.. THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT " FOIA " just re - released this documentary in a different form - a lot of the original video is cut and edited..
They were like the perfect towers ever built. It had everything that a person would want when working or enjoying New York; a secure working environment, subways, shopping, food, offices, and an awsome observatory deck a person can go to at the end of a long day and enjoy the sunset over the skyline and look above the world. I will truly miss the view from the top of the WTC
Im from Chicago, & the Sears Tower, (Willis Tower now, however I will always call it Sears) is an amazing building. I love the art of skyscrapers. I always wanted to come to the great city of New York & visit these iconic towers, ever since that tragic day, my chances of visiting are gone. I was hoping that these exact towers were rebuilt even taller to show that America can take a nasty blow, but stand tall again even taller. Maybe one day, I will come pay my respect for the lost at the new WTC
USA is just showing that we have been beat by not rebuilding them it shows we gave up. they should prove tht we wont give up and be affected from this tragedy

@Scotsdalepictures I agree. Maybe that's one of the reasons why they stopped showing this on 9/11

They made them sound indestructible, but the truth is that their foundations were too light and weak.
