Overview

1 World Trade Center, or WTC1, was one of the "twin towers" which were destroyed in the 9/11 attacks. It is often referred to as "The North Tower". It was also part of the seven-building World Trade Center, all buildings of which were ultimately destroyed as a result of the attacks.

WTC1 had also been the victim of a 1993 bombing intended to topple the building and send it crashing into WTC2, destroying them both; the building remained standing and was soon repaired and returned to service.
