50 Year's Ago Today

50 years ago today: the north tower of the World Trade Center was the victim of an arson attack that consumed 65% of the 11th floor,  with the fire spreading to six floors of the building. 28 people were treated for injuries, and one employee died of a heart attack. 

It was the second attack in the history of the doomed complex. During construction 5 years earlier, a trailer on site was bombed by anti- war protesters.
