I used to work on the 34th floor at One Penn Plaza, about 3/4 the distance between the former World Trade Center and Trump Tower, closer to the latter. The Towers might as well have been across the street from our office, they seemed so close. In fact, most of what was shown on network TV following the 9/11 attacks could well have been filmed at my old office.
For Trump to have seen this from his tower apt, much higher than my office, is not at all a stretch. And, one would assume, his apt. is well equipped with binoculars and likely a fantastic telescope. The view from his apt. has to be beyond spectacular... can likely see well into NJ and possibly PA.
Hi neighbor, I worked on the 17th floor at Two Penn Plaza - probably saw you on the taxi line...
