After almost 25 years now, there are more things we still can learn about that day. Silverstein had signed a 99-year lease for the World Trade Center complex just weeks before the attacks. Silverstein has stated that he typically attended meetings at the World Trade Center every morning. However, on 9/11, he did not go to the office due to a medical appointment. This detail has frequently resurfaced in documentaries, news reports, and online discussions as people revisit the events of that tragic day.
The first plane hit at 8:46 AM.
Yeah no shit he missed work. If he was at a dermatology appointment first thing in the morning he wouldn’t have been there for breakfast when the planes hit. And once the second plane hit at 9:03, nobody but firemen were going back into the towers.
