    In two decades from now, you might find yourself reminiscing about how great the year 2023 was, just as you do today. Therefore, make the most of your life, savor every moment, and embrace the present with full enthusiasm. Instead of being overly optimistic about the current times and the future, focus on living in the now and cherishing the experiences it brings.

    In those days the World Trade Center Towers still dominated the view across the river where I lived in downtown Jersey City. By the time I left in 2015, there were so many towers in Jersey City that when I stood on the front porch and looked left, I could not see anything in New York anymore. I had to go down by the curb on the sidewalk to see New York and even then, you had to know what was in New York, it was no longer obvious just by looking. Those were the days: when the World Trade Center was always there, something you had just seen or would see again soon. I had temp jobs up above the 100th floor and on other floors too. What a view we had up there at Shearson Lehman. Often I was there after the sun was down. The elevators were so big. I used to ask myself if I would want to work in those buildings full time and the answer was, not really. I don't believe in buildings that tall anymore. If something goes wrong there are just too many people and too many stairs. It is just too much. Whatever anybody says, don't believe it. It is just too much. Thank you for the ride. I would love to do it again. 8/22/21

I remember on the first time I came back to NYC after the fateful day I glanced in that direction while on the way in a bus and for a split second I actually half-expected the familiar sight before I was instantly greeted by an empty space. Seeing their demise on TV live was bad enough, but actually going there and experiencing their sudden absence first-hand...it just broke my heart to finally realize that they were indeed gone 😔😔😔

    Great video, brought back memories of driving through NYC as a child with my dad since he lived in Manhattan and I'd spend weekends at his apartment which was near the WTC. At night the NYC skyline was a breathtaking view something you'd have to see in person to really appreciate. After the towers came down the skyline was just not the same and I would cry everytime wed pass where they use to be. Even now as an adult this makes me want to cry.

    As an ex New Yorker, in 2001 the building and signs in your video look like I remember, and oddly the traffic looks normal, Not Crazy like these Days! And it's good to remember seeing yellow cabs, Not Uber & Lyft which killed the cabbies. And to think we all functioned without Smart Phones and people survived just fine! And Yes this Millennium started off badly with the 9/11 attack on the United States and our lives changed, things have gotten Crazy Expensive and more complicated and dangerous. Life simple Joys that always existed in the 1/2 century before are gone and have been replaced with a sickly acceptance of "THE NEW NORMAL". Life has been bad ever since!

    What is common, that everyone exactly remember that day, 11.09.2001, and what they did that date. I was on my way from physics exam at Uni, driving from Kraków to Sanok, east Poland. My girlfriend picked up the call from her mother. She started to explain to us what just have happened. It was so difficult to catch, that enormous tragedy. Once we got back home, we jest sat in front of tv and followed breaking news. Horrible view. It's not me to judge and comment if towers collapsed due to melted steel (i have my own opinion about that). I just wanted to express, that it's so sad, that many innocent souls lost their lifes.

    There were millions upon millions of people who visited the towers inside and outside before they were gone. If they went there and didn't take very much photographs of the buildings from the inside or outside, of such a unique place, then that was there choice. Many people afterwards most likely wished they had. The towers were first attacked back in 1993, if you remember. If you don't, just google it. You would think more people would visit and appreciate those buildings after the first attack, but they still didn't receive much respect. They were not exactly liked by some people, because they thought the buildings were too plain looking. Which they weren't. There was an indifference to them compared to the other buildings in New York city at the time.

I sure didn't care for them and took them for granted before 9/11 anytime I saw them I was just like "Wow. Two tall ass buildings."

It gves me a pit in my stomach every time I see one of these videos routinely visiting the WTC. I spent about a minute or so in the lower level before just turning around and exploring rest of New York City. Plus, I remember seeing the WTC from the observation areas of the Empire State Building... Just two big square buildings that you just assumed would be there forever. So sorry I didn't explore the place more.

I remember the first I heard about it was when my friend was receiving loads of messages asking if her dad was ok (he worked in new york). We were in a public park and confused as to what was happening, but when we got back to college after lunch all lessons stopped and we saw it all on the TV. I didn't realise how significant that day would be. ❤
