First visit to the World Trade Center, with brother and mom, 2001.

I remember that seeing the Twin Towers from the plaza gave me a somewhat empty feeling because they were so tall that it was difficult to appreciate them from the plaza's view point. And I remember how amazing it was to look down from the observation deck on the 110th floor and see tiny people and cars. It was like discovering a world I had never seen.
