Ground Zero



Located in the heart of downtown NY is Ground Zero where the Twin Towers stood till 911 in 2001. It is a very strange feeling to see the place now and try to imagine that there were two huge skyscrapers here until recent times. The current site is a mass of construction and the square is a huge slice of real estate. Some of the damage is visible on the surrounding buildings as well. There is a little place which houses a list of names of everyone killed here as well as what the plans for redevelopment are. Some people were visibly distressed as well and unfortunately there are some people trying to cash in by selling pictures/post cards etc which isn't right.
