This section of
Ktransit is a tribute to the families and heroes of the tragedy that
befell New York City on September 11th 2001. I may live in Oregon, but I
was born raised in NYC, later in the nearby town of Nyack, NY.
I will always consider myself a New
Yorker, specifically a Brooklynite.
Over the
years, whenever I visit New York City I would usually stop at the World Trade Center.
Most of the time I was there to ride the PATH trains to/from
NJ. I liked the newspaper stands in the shopping arcade,
magazines and newspapers from all over. I mostly enjoyed people watching. I loved getting there
by 11:15 am on weekdays. At that time he shopping area was
relatively empty.  By 11:30 business would pick up.
Between 11:45 and 12:15 the place would be packed with people
searching for a place to eat lunch.
A great
memory from the WTC is that my third and first kiss date with
my wife was to the top of the World Trade Center back in 1987.
I was at the WTC just 2
weeks and one day before the attack. I was on vacation visiting
relatives and doing railfanning in the area. I did get some
photos of the skyline from NJ before I left. I only regret
that I did not go to the top that day. The following
pages are photos I have taken
over the years, before and after 9/11/2001 of the WTC....
