Lower Manhattan, 1972/73

Taken from the Statue of Liberty ferry, on a cloudy, windy late fall or early spring day. If you enlarge by clicking on the picture, you will see a building skeleton to the right of the Trade Center--it is either 7 World Trade or the Deutsche Bank building.

I always thought that lower Manhattan would look, more or less like this, for my lifetime...

World Trade 7. Had it collapsed on any other day it would have been a huge headline. As it was, it was barely a side-note.

One of the many ironies.

Thanks for the post.

Capt. Schmoe:

Yes. Crazy conspiracy theorists have 7 World Trade Center now. Sad.

On a brighter note, congrats on your retirement!
