The collapse of the World Trade Center complex in New York

The World Trade Center, with ZIP 10048, suffered a massive attack that killed six and injured over a thousand. Six militants were jailed for life, the $300 million damage quickly repaired, and security upgrades valued at $50 million implemented before the sites partially reopened. Port Authority chair Lewis Eisenberg called the event devastating, likening it to Pearl Harbor.
