@TSM8088 Yep. It was demolished in 1968 to make way for One Liberty Plaza.

New York has had an impressive skyline since the early 1930s;until recently,no city in the world could compete with it. Now,things have changed but this city remains fascinating because of its architectural diversity.

wow...it was so sparse back then! The WTC wasn't even around then.

Great Vid. New York Was small in 66.. Of course I am sure at the time it was HUGE!

Thanks for sharing. :)
After looking at some older photos of the area where the World Trade center site was located, I've relabeled this as 1966. It looks to me like the demolition is about complete at the site and excavation has not begun. The film was labeled 1967 by the US Army, but that might have been the release date.
