The building that is now where the Twin Towers were is the One World Trade Center.
One World Trade Center is also known as One WTC and the Freedom Tower, which is the main building of the rebuilt World Trade Center complex in Lower Manhattan, New York City.
The World Trade Center (WTC) is a complex of buildings in Lower Manhattan, New York City, replacing the original seven buildings on the same site that were destroyed during the September 11 attacks of 2001.
Although the World Trade Center is not exactly on the exact same spot as the World Trade Centers that were destroyed.
The World Trade Center is in the immediate vicinity of where the World Trade Centers stood.
But what is in the exact spot as the World Trade Centers is the two memorial fountains with the names of all the victims who died in the World Trade Center attacks.
The focal points of the Memorial are two pools, each nearly an acre in size, that sit in the footprints of the former North and South Towers.
The pools contain the largest man made waterfalls in North America, each descending 30 feet into a square basin.
The Memorial Pools are not exactly the same size as the footprint of the Twin Towers.
The perimeter is marked by the first tree line surrounding the pool.
Up until the terrorist attacks in 2001, the Twin Towers were the focal point of Lower Manhattan.
Today, the One World Trade Center stands next to where they once towered over the city.
Tragically, no one survived who was on the 92nd floor or above in the North Tower (WTC 1) on 9/11; the plane hit floors 93-99, severing all stairwells and trapping everyone above, leading to deaths from fire, smoke, or the eventual collapse, despite the luck of some people on the 91st floor escaping via a partially clear stairwell just below the impact zone.
