CHURCH STREET
November 8, 2001
Church Street at Park Place.
Workers use acetylene torches to sever the
I-beams of WTC4. The "All clear" signal is
given and an iron wrecking ball pounds
down upon the slowly collapsing structure.

I can't express in language how the tourists
were patricoticly dressed. Really weird though.

SMOKE

to underground fires, sending plumes
of smoke into the sky.
