Complete construction documentary spanning from 1967 to 1979. Contained within are nearly 300 color photographs which depict the former World Trade Center twin towers construction. Hands down the most extensive photographic history of the Twin's construction still in existence. Each photo has never been published before and each one is unique and extraordinary. Photographs show the destruction of "Radio Row" in lower Manhattan, to excavation and steel erection, each stage until each tower's topping out!! A brief history of the towers political hurdles and the complexity that went into building them is also included to complement these photographs. Under normal circumstances, The World Trade Center's should have stood for centuries. Unfortunately, they were gruesomely destroyed after only 30 years of having graced the Manhattan Skyline. This historical account documents the twins birth!!
