Under/efter angrebet d. 11 september 2001 søgte mange tilflugt i Trinity Church, præsten i kirken døde under angrebet, da han gik op til de 2 towers for at hjælpe. Vi tager et kig ind
During the September 11 terrorist attacks, as the first World Trade Center tower collapsed, people took refuge from the massive debris cloud inside the church. Falling wreckage from the collapsing tower knocked over a giant sycamore tree that had stood for nearly a century in the churchyard of St. Paul's Chapel, which is part of Trinity Church's parish and is located several blocks north of Trinity Church. Sculptor Steve Tobin used its roots as the base for a bronze sculpture titled Trinity Root, which stood in front of the church at the corner of Wall Street and Broadway until December, 2015 when it was moved by the church to its conference center in Connecticut. The move was controversial as it seriously damaged the sculpture, and the artist has objected to its eviction.
Så går turen til Wall-Street, bossen og bumsen mv. Det er billeder herfra man er vokset op med, så jeg glæder mig til at se det.
Wall Streets Charging Bull
Vi har spottet Chrysler Building i det fjerne
New Yorks riddende politi.
Mens vi var i new York var der terror angreb på et julemarked i Tyskland, det gjorde at der blev optrappet på politi i New York, især foran de mange markeder.
Vi skulle have noget at spise og besluttede at tage på en Bubba Gump vi havde set på Time Square. Det var oki, men det bar meget præg af at det var en turistfælde. og det var MEGET koldt der. Dog fik vi den gode udsigt til Time Square
