The Twin Towers of the original World Trade Center in New York City were two iconic skyscrapers that each had 110 floors above ground. These floors were used for various purposes, including offices, observation decks, and mechanical equipment. At the time of their completion, the North Tower (Tower 1) and the South Tower (Tower 2) were among the tallest buildings in the world, standing at 1,368 feet (417 meters) and 1,362 feet (415 meters), respectively. They were a symbol of economic power and architectural innovation before they were tragically destroyed in the terrorist attacks on September 11, 2001.
