The Towers July 2001
I dedicate this post for those too young to remember and those mature enough to lament. July 2001 was the last time my eyes gazed at these magnificent columns of concrete and steel in New York City. I remember the Cold War was over and no new enemies were in sight. There was a balanced budget and a former Texas Governor was the new President. The News of the day revolved around a missing intern who may have had an affair with a Congressman from California. Legally Blonde and Jurassic Park III had just come out in theaters. Gas was $1.60 per gallon and anyone who knew what email was used AmericaOnLine with a lightning fast 14.4bps dial up modem. Everyone was optimistic.
Of course, all that changed two months later. It's been 15 years and I still find it difficult to imagine the City without them. Hopefully, you can enjoy this simulation as much as I remember the real thing. NOTE: It's a large file, so, expect lag when loading. There are 2 Cameras at Ground Level and 3 on the Roof. Enjoy and Thanks for 3000!

i dont think its exactly the best idea to make the twin towers in a game thats specifically made for plane building
i have a problem its to laggy
@MrSilverWolf, can you moderate this comment section. there is way to many 9/11 jokes in here
Everyone talks bout the towers, but what about THE PLANES! THE FOUR PLANES THAT WERE LOST THAT DAY! IT IS SAD ABOUT THE TOWERS, SADDER THAN THE PLANES. BUT NO ONE TALKS ABOUT THE PLANES
@sussybaka98198 oh crap bro noticed tooo
🫡
you posted the WTC in a site about planes
@Zhixunlin23 for real bro. im so sad rn. I don't relate to the tragedies because i haven't been in one tbh... but joking about tragedies like 9/11... my god it just fricking hits me.
@florky every tragic event in humanity’s history was joked about
we have strayed away from god's touch that y'all are just recreating this sad event in American history.
rest in peace, 9/11 victims.
@florky 🕯️🙏
@Lingus18 its a boeing 767
I look though the comment section of this and all I see is memorial comments, normal comments for SP standards and ones making fun of 9/11. The last ones I deeply hate for obvious reasons…..
Twin towers in a "planes" website
https://www.simpleplanes.com/a/v31Mcx/Boeing-767-200ER-Heavy-American-Airlines
I would link the plane for someone to spawn this as AI and then cras-
The September 11 attacks, commonly known as 9/11,[e] were four coordinated Islamist suicide terrorist attacks carried out by Al-Qaeda against the United States on September 11, 2001. That morning, 19 terrorists hijacked four commercial airliners scheduled to travel from the East Coast to California. The hijackers crashed the first two planes into the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center in New York City, two of the world's five tallest buildings at the time, and aimed the next two flights toward targets in or near Washington, D.C., in an attack on the nation's capital. The third team succeeded in striking the Pentagon, the headquarters of the U.S. Department of Defense in Arlington County, Virginia, while the fourth plane crashed in rural Pennsylvania during a passenger revolt. The September 11 attacks killed 2,977 people, making them the deadliest terrorist attack in history, and instigated the multi-decade global war on terror, fought in Afghanistan, Iraq, and elsewhere.
@RealMicroZack2024 ¿what did he said? (I can’t find the comment)
11269 PARTS!?
@Planemodder1911 that's bad, just bad, disrespectful
@ZhivChek that's just disrespectful man
i respect the effort and the dedication for thoses who passed away. but like.
i feel like this is kinda a bad idea to make in this game but, still i respect it. and i love it.
@ZhivChek Feeling Terrorist Eh?
Somehow my iPhone 14 pro managed to spawn these but it was very very laggy
@Lingus18
Al Qaeda liked this comment so much that they made it reality
