"World Trade Center reopens; Called ‘most secure office building’ in US" by Verena Dobnik | Associated Press November 04, 2014
NEW YORK — The silvery, 1,776-foot skyscraper that rose from the ashes of 9/11 to become a symbol of American resilience opened for business on Monday.
The connection of those two dates cannot be by accident, and is another psyop, mind-f***, in-your-face laugher.
The official opening of One World Trade Center marked a symbolic return to some sense of normalcy for the site where the twin towers toppled more than 13 years ago.
That's disgusting. Normality went away that day, and we have had nothing but increased tyranny to protect us from the "terrorists."

Its chief architect, T.J. Gottesdiener, said the high-rise was built with steel-reinforced concrete that makes it as attack-proof as possible — much stronger than the original towers, which collapsed on themselves after they were struck by hijacked airplanes.
Except those towers were constructed to withstand an airplane impact, making that statement in my paper a distortion at best, a deception at worst.
After 9/11, he said, architects took pains to figure out new ways to make a high-rise safer, working with the New York Fire Department, buildings officials, and police, while learning from new techniques employed in construction in cities worldwide....
Of course, neither before nor since have steel-framed towers collapsed due to to fire like the THREE WTC towers that day.

FURTHER UPDATE:
"World Trade Center window washers ‘doing well’ after scaffold mishap" Associated Press November 14, 2014
NEW YORK — Two window washers left dangling from the nation’s tallest skyscraper, 1 World Trade Center, were ‘‘doing well’’ after their release from a hospital, their employer said.
Investigators were looking into why a cable developed slack, leaving the workers stuck 68 stories above the street Wednesday afternoon. The two held onto the teetering platform for two agonizing hours, and one called his wife, fearful that it might be his last opportunity to speak to her.
Firefighters used diamond cutters to saw through a double-layered window and pulled the men to safety.
The dramatic rescue, coming a little more than a week after the building officially opened, was followed by throngs of New Yorkers watching from the ground and many more around the world watching on live television.
The window washers, Juan Lizama and Juan Lopez, were working on the south side of the lower Manhattan building when one of the platform’s four cables abruptly gave way, Fire Commissioner Daniel Nigro said. The open-topped platform tilted sharply and swayed slightly between the 68th and 69th floors, he said.
