The World Trade Towers

Many countries are famous because of their landmarks. New York City, in the United States was famous for its World Trade Center Towers. They were known as the twin towers; they were at a height of 417 and 415 meters. According to Skyscraper, “The towers, One and Two World Trade Center, rose at the heart of the complex, each climbing more than 100 feet higher than the silver mast of the Empire State Building” (The World Trade Center). Port Authority of New York and New Jersey decided to build these towers in 1962. Architect Yamasaki, Roth and Sons with other engineers designed the shape of the two towers; to be like twins. The purpose from building them was to restore confidence and to be one of New York City’s famous symbols. Construction of the towers began on 5^th August 1966. The two towers were built in the center of New York City. The towers were opened first on 4^th April 1973, which took about 6 years and 8 months to complete. These two towers had a cost of $1.5 billion. Unfortunately, the two twin towers do not exist after 11^th September 2001.

In 11 of September 2001 the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City destroyed .according to some witness  illustrate 3 explosions at the beginning of the collapse, while other  describe a cracking sound.  Many people explain they hear a bomb sounds, after that the world trade center towers came down. On the other hand, the explosion happens in the date which was holiday for the all of Jews which raises suspicion they were behind the blast process. Some people think this happened by some of groups was

Planning for blast process but it’s totally wrong according to the witness .When the plane piloted by terrorists hit the Twin Towers, around 10,000 gallons of jet fuel make a huge of fireball. But, in the impact it’s not of the planes make the Towers collapse right away it was from inside job, the Twin Towers have outmoded design. The outmoded design means that when one system destroys, another system or support will load it. The Twin Towers have 244 columns it will not damage easily, when some columns were damage,  the others column will still support the building .on the other hand the police and fire extinguisher officer said the the explosion happen from inside job by “massive bomb” it was planted inside one car and they parked under the ground  behind the twin towers  and its killed at least five dead and hundreds of injured in the explosion .According to the photographer “John Labile “ he saw some people running away from the world trade Center  towers  before few mints of  building explosion .
