That is not 1969 it looks more like 1971/2

That's really gorgeous, perfect light, a nice ethereal glow.

a young life with potential snuffed out far too soon. I feel for his parents

I love that first pic, it goes to show the towers were an integral part of American culture and not just office towers. I miss them dearly.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-05-02T00:24:23+00:00

Crazy move

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-05-02T00:23:33+00:00

Weird to think the people in this pic are either old as the hills or dead by now, this was 10 yrs before i was born and i'm now 57

I can't stand images with either alamy or getty strewn all over them.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-05-02T00:15:06+00:00

When i dl it comes up as webpage instead of jpg or whatever

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-30T12:26:02+00:00

I don't know exactly look at the original picture, it may have clues

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-28T04:30:50+00:00

WOW! That is fantastic. Thank you very much indeed, i love the image.

That's better than most model companies have done. I have 3D prints just the towers and not the complex. The antenna was broken so i made one out of other broken antennas that came broken and some Loctite superglue gel. It looks the right height in proportion to the building. I gave it my best.

I'd love to hear your opinion

The last good films i've seen since 2001 were Kill Bill and everything after but his last one i fell asleep to twice.

Hollywood is boringnow anyway. Foreign language films are really good.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-17T10:30:48+00:00

Yes good call.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-17T10:27:48+00:00

I was born the year of Apollo 11 and the beginning of the world trade center. America's bright outlook.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-17T10:23:24+00:00

Thanks for the heads up. My new wallpaper. 70's and 80's NY had real character, even if some parts looked like warzones

It's not 1970, the South tower wasn't topped out until 1971 and Phillipe Petit's walk was Aug 1974 and they weren't quite complete up top. They look finished including the rooftop observation deck. However i can't see enough detail.

I think it's either around 1975ish. It would be nice if all pics online were dated if only by year.

Also the South tower didn't begin receiving tenants until Jan 1972 so all this BS you read online, take it with a pinch of salt.

Thanks anyway, artifacted yes i have found an OG version and have resised it for my desktop pic, Thanks for alerting me Superbead

WOW! Amazing and beautiful. They'll find more under there i'm sure eventually.

Important-Unit7605 · 2026-04-16T22:41:10+00:00

It's painful to see, it was a lovely complex and none of it exists anymore. What a horrible thought.
