The Twin Towers were a pair of buildings, part of the New York World Trade Center in New York City. They were built in 1973 and each was 110 stories tall, among the tallest buildings in the world.
As part of a terrorist attack on September 11, 2001, they were destroyed by terrorists who crashed hijacked commercial aircraft into the buildings. At 8:46 AM EDT, American Airlines Flight 11 was crashed into the World Trade Center's North Tower, followed by United Airlines Flight 175, which hit the South Tower at 9:03 AM. The South Tower collapsed less than an hour later at 9:59 AM, followed by the North Tower at 10:28 AM. As many as 2750 people, including the passengers of the two planes, were killed.
