Since you mentioned the workers, it should also be noted that on the WTC, like other structures of its type, was built with labor from the Mohawk Indians from upstate New York, who have traditionally done the high beam work in this city. These guys used to come in during the week to work and then drive 12 hours back to the reservation every weekend.
