Description: STOCK PHOTOS ONLY AMERICAN EXPERIENCE: NEW YORK: THE CENTER OF THE WORLD EPISODE 8 The eighth episode of the award-winning series NEW YORK: A DOCUMENTARY FILM chronicles the rise and fall of the World Trade Center, whose epic fifty-year history sheds new light on every theme and issue in the city's long march to the center of the world. Propelled forward in the 1960s by the immense power of David and Nelson Rockefeller and the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the world's two tallest buildings would rise despite political controversy, daunting engineering challenges, withering critical scorn and the threat of financial disaster. In the end, a spectacular 45-minute escapade by a high-wire artist named Philippe Petit and New York's astonishing renaissance would transform the towers into a worldwide icon—the ultimate symbol of an economic system that had come to dominate much of the planet. The episode comes to a climax with the harrowing events of September 11, 2001—and the extraordinary response of the city's people to the worst crisis in their history.
