At 1,368 feet, they clocked in as the tallest buildings in the world and changed the New York City skyline dramatically.

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.
