Well back in the late 80's I went up one of the twin towers with my girlfriend at the time. It was a tourist attraction then and for a few dollars you could be taken up in the lifts to the roof and allowed to walk round a roped off area and take photographs of New York

I think after that attempt in the early 90's by terrorists on the World Trade Centre they closed it off and stopped tourism also I wonder is that when they locked the doors so no one could get onto the roof!

Anyone else been up the twin towers when on holiday back in those days?

Let me know - cheers
