The World Trade Center Redevelopment

You might be aware that back in 2001, there was an unexpected and terrifying disaster in the port authority area of lower Manhattan that ultimately required some major commercial redevelopment. In this video, we are going to learn about the construction of One World Trade Center and how they constructed a new tower around the memorial for 9/11. Fun story: I was in a writing group and had done a little short story that started on the roof of One World Trade center and several people in the group were unaware of the redevelopment at the site. That was the only thing they complained about in my story. That didn’t understand that a new building had gone up and the rest of the story was pretty irrelevant after that. Either way, here is a great video about how they rebuilt the site and what it looks like now.
