Windows on the World: Remembering 9/11 | A Slice of New York
In this special episode of A Slice of New York, host Mike Gilliam sits down with two former employees of Windows on the World who worked there when the events of September 11, 2001, changed New York forever. Sharing their personal stories and heartfelt reflections, they remember the colleagues, friends, and community they lost, recount what they experienced that morning, and share the emotions that have stayed with them for a quarter of a century. More than a remembrance of a place, this conversation is a tribute to the people who worked at Windows on the World and the resilience forged in one of New York City's darkest moments.
