Summary:
Discover the true story of the
Twin
Towers
how they came to be the tallest buildings in the world and why they were destroyed. When the
Twin
Towers
were built in 1973, they were billed as an architectural wonder. At 1,368 feet, they clocked in as the tallest buildings in the world and changed the New York City skyline dramatically. Offices and corporations moved into the
towers
also known as the World Trade Center--and the buildings were seen as the economic hub of the world. But on September 11, 2001, a terrorist attack toppled the
towers
and changed our nation forever. Discover the whole story of the
Twin
Towers
from their ambitious construction to their tragic end.
