    "EarthCam Premieres 20 Year 9/11 Anniversary Time-Lapse Film, ‘Never Forgotten’
    Documenting two decades of the rescue, recovery and rebuilding at the World Trade Center site"
    In recognition of the opening of One World Observatory in New York City, we have released a special edition of our One World Trade Center video. Watch and share this commemorative time-lapse showing the building progress from October 2004 to Memorial Day 2015. Over the past 11 years, EarthCam’s construction cameras captured hundreds of thousands of high definition images and our Creative Team hand-edited the footage to create this exclusive movie.
    Produced and Directed by Brian Cury, EarthCam's CEO & Founder, "It's our mission to continue to document this for future generations, so people can see what it took to rebuild these important 16 acres."

    Four years ago when my cancer was diagnosed as terminal, I went through all of my saved souvenirs and found one from August 1981. A ticket to the top of the original WTC. Four years later I am still alive (long story), and hoping to get a ticket from this one one day.

    It took so long to get this thing going and it angered a lot of New Yorkers that we couldn’t get it started let alone finished. I will say now it is striking and a powerful reminder of what was there before and honors the past, while simultaneously being a beautiful skyscraper worthy of leading the most iconic skyline in the world. Every angle you see it from whether it be Jersey or the island or the Bronx etc, it has the ultimate wow factor. I encourage any non NYers to come visit. Seeing it is great but the views from inside are incredible of course. Cool video!

      GameAddict51 honestly, I totally agreed bro... These people need to get their heads out of their asses and show some respect for those who lost their lives and their families. I went to the comments thinking there was going to the showing of American pride or respect for this project but no and it's just shit. 16 years still doesn't give anyone the right to make a joke about the death of so many innocent civilians.... Those who are making the jokes, think if you had a family member in the building or as a first responder who gave their life for those they saved how would those comments feel, even if they are "a joke".... show some respect guys come on...

Then in 2006, when I was 2 years old is when the Memorial was almost done, and the Trade center started construction. From a Toddler until 2014, when I was 10 years old, they finished it. 8 years later, I'm here typing this comment. I visited the World trade center for the first time in 2015 post graduating from Elementary. A crazy sight to think that only 12 years ago, where I stood in front of the memorial is where two famously impressive buildings stood.

    • @skykev6290

      I think it would be very honorable to rebuild a skyscraper on the plot where all of that devastation occurred. Maybe those construction workers do get more esteem and thanks for working on that than the people who collect garbage or who work fast food, but I bet that was a very competitive job to get, and I bet they worked long and hard to build the experience to get that job. Nothing is stopping the garbage workers or fast food workers from having aspiration like that. Maybe if there were no thanks or honor to a job like this, the garbage workers and fast food workers would never aspire for anything further--if there was never anything that seemed better; never anything that garnered more prestige simply on account of it being a job, and since it's a job and they're doing a job, no reason to make it special, no reason to make anyone feel important, right? I just feel that train of thought is a good way to lose any upward motivation/mobility. I personally thank those people for their hard work. Skyscrapers are a spectacle of human technology and achievement, and the architects, builders, etc. all deserve prestige for the feat. Just my opinion.
