I made this web page to reflect on the World Trade Center (WTC) Terror Attack.
I am thankful to be one of the people with one of the "lucky" stories.
I normally take the PATH train from my apartment (I live directly across the Hudson River from the WTC)
near the base of Tower 1 of the WTC between 8:45 and 9:15 a.m. each day.
However, on September 11, 2001, I was out in New Jersey for the funeral of my Aunt Marie.
I can't help but pause to reflect on the irony of this fact: that a death probably saved my life.
I work as an enforcement officer for the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency
and I always had a lingering fear that one day "they" might attack my office building
at 290 Broadway (8 blocks north of the WTC).
These photos were taken from outside of my apartment.
