-Caveat Lector- From: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> >Here is original story - now June take note you are a liar.
And you are an asshole who does not know one iota of NYC history and gullibly takes an incorrect statement from a PBS site as the gospel truth and is too lazy to spend even 5 minutes doing a Google search on WTC history.... Try the following site instead: http://www.mcny.org/nytradeoffs/radio.htm On which one finds the following: ------------------------------------ New York Trade Offs: Single Trade Districts The Radio District A remarkable district of small retail stores once thrived where the World Trade Center now stands. Small stores specializing in everything from pets to athletic supplies could be found in the area bounded by West, Church, Liberty, and Vesey Streets. It was dominated, though, by those selling televisions, radios, and high-fidelity sound equipment and parts, particularly the infinite variety of vacuum tubes on which electronic home appliances once ran. [snip] By the early 1960s, the Port Authority and New York's city and state governments had begun planning the World Trade Center. Backed by real estate developers and construction companies, the Center encountered no effective opposition. Land was quickly bought up, shops closed, and buildings demolished. It took just ten short years, 1962 to 1972, from the selection of the Radio District as the site for the World Trade Center to the completion of the twin towers. That great landmark came at the cost of a marvelous old part of town. ------------------------------------- But since it is obvious that pictures are easier for you to comprehend than actual reading, you should check out the following site which has a photographic history of the WTC construction, starting with an aerial view of the site prior to the demolition of "Radio Row"...gee, not a 'landfill' in sight.... http://iserve.wtca.org/History/pages/01_jpg.htm So Colleen, you owe me an apology for calling me a liar.
