THE WORLD TRADE CENTERS (1973-2001)

The original World Trade Center complex, located in Lower Manhattan, New York City, was envisioned as a symbol of America's economic prowess and global trade dominance. Construction began in 1966, and the Twin Towers, known as WTC 1 and WTC 2, were completed in 1973. Standing at 110 stories each, they became the tallest buildings in the world at the time.
The World Trade Center complex also consisted of four other buildings: WTC 3, WTC 4, WTC 5 , WTC 6, and WTC 7. These buildings formed a sprawling complex with a central plaza and an underground shopping mall known as the "World Trade Center Mall."

Tragically, on September 11, 2001, the Twin Towers were targeted by terrorist attacks. Hijacked airplanes crashed into both towers, causing their eventual collapse and resulting in the loss of thousands of lives. The attacks shocked the world and led to a complete destruction of the original World Trade Center complex.

(By the way this isn't supposed to make fun of the attacks it just supposed to be a simple 1:5 model of the World Trade Centers, I do not defend the acts of terrorism which took place in 1993 and 2001.)
