World Trade Center, 1981
We took a day trip from New Jersey into New York City to see the World Trade Center in June 1981. Except for the first one, taken from ground level, the rest were taken from the Top of the World observation deck above the 107th floor of the South Tower. On the second image, you can just make out the signature of George Willig, who climbed the tower in 1977 (click to embiggen, signature is just to the left of the corner). The panorama at the end is of the North Tower (click to embiggen). The final picture is Lower Manhattan and the World Trade Center from the Empire State Building, taken a couple of weeks later.
