My office is located on 17th st. in Manhattan. My boss saw the flame and smoke from the first plane hitting. She did not know it was a plane, merely that the tower was on fire. She was screaming "oh my god the twin towers are on fire.
We all ran down to look out the Window and saw the huge hole with the smoke pouring out. I weent around the corner to call my wife after a few minutes. Screams brought me back, I did not see the plane, but saw the ball of flame pour through the building from the second strike.
Then we knew it was a terrorist. A co-worker and I said it together that we were under attack. Another said, "this is just like Pearl Harbor."
Withing an hour both towers crumbled before our eyes
Now, I've been in both on business a few times and been to the obersvation deck maybe six time. Also went to meeting in the surrounding, and now destroyed buildings.
I wish nothing but death on those who planned this.
