Ground Zero

Some more photos people requested. My dad was a detective for the 1st Precinct NYPD (precinct closest to WTC). He requested I blur out his and his friend’s faces. Some of these are from morning after, some are during clean up. I do have more, which I will upload a different time. He responded when the first plane hit and remained there; then stayed at ground zero for months after, living at the Burger King (temporary NYPD headquarters). I was 6 at the time, and I remember wondering why he hasn’t been home for so long. To this day he can’t talk about it and still does counseling. Gets checked up every year for 9/11 related illness and thankfully has been fine. The worst thing for him currently are the night terrors. His coworkers and friends unfortunately have mostly passed from related illness or are riddled with cancer.

For those who visited the Pre-9/11 twin towers themselves. What was the size of the buildings like?

The only reason I ask is I never myself got a chance to visit New York City before in the past so far during my 38 years of life on this world we call Planet Earth and as such that is one of my biggest regrets as the original World Trade Center towers got demolished in the September 11th, 2001 terrorist attacks before that was possible.

So for you guys that did get to see the twin towers physically in person prior to 9/11. What was the size of those buildings like pictured above when you got do so, and why?
