to the year of the United States Declaration of Independence It has been nine years since terrorists targeted the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center, along with the Pentagon and White House in Washington, D.C.

On September 11, 2001, terrorists managed to destroy the towers and damage the Pentagon. The plane believed to be aimed at the White House came down in a field in Pennsylvania.

Since then, workers have been busy at the site, first clearing it, then preparing it for a new skyscraper and a memorial to the 2,792 people killed there : the One World Trade center
