The World Trade Center in New York City (sometimes informally referred to as the WTC or the Twin Towers) was a complex of seven buildings,mostly designed by American architect Minoru Yamasaki and developed by the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey.It was initiated in 1960 by a Lower Manhattan Association created and chaired by David Rockefeller,who had the original idea of building the Center,with strong backing from the then New York governor,his brother,Nelson Rockefeller.[1] Larry Silverstein held the most recent lease to the complex,the Port Authority having leased it to him in July of 2001.[2] The complex,located in the heart of New York City's downtown financial district,contained 13.4 million square feet (1.24 million m²) of office space,almost four percent of Manhattan's entire office inventory.[3]
Best known for its iconic 110-story twin towers,the World Trade Center was beset by a fire on February 13,1975 and a bombing on February 26,1993.All of the original buildings in the complex were destroyed in the September 11,2001,attacks,including 1 WTC,2 WTC (North and South Towers) and 7 WTC which collapsed; 3 WTC (Marriott Hotel) was crushed by the collapses of 1 WTC and 2 WTC; and 4 WTC,5 WTC,and 6 WTC were damaged beyond repair and later demolished.In addition,St.Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church (not part of the complex) was destroyed by the collapse of 2 WTC.
