where were the twin towers

The Twin Towers were located in the Financial District of Lower Manhattan in New York City, specifically as part of the original World Trade Center complex. The exact site was a 16-acre area bounded roughly by Vesey Street to the north, Church Street to the east, Liberty Street to the south, and West Street to the west. Each tower stood about an acre in footprint size and had 110 floors. The North Tower (1 World Trade Center) was 1,368 feet tall, and the South Tower (2 World Trade Center) was 1,362 feet tall. The Twin Towers were the centerpiece of the World Trade Center complex until they were destroyed in the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.
