I can't even put it into words, because there are no words to describe it. New York in 1998 - 2000 was a very special place. You had to be there. And it'll never be the same again.

Agreed.I was actually born after the 1993 bombing,and my earliest childhood in New York had the Twin Towers in it. 2001 was the last year I spent continually living in Queens and then me and my dad moved to Florida. 9/11 happened a few months after. You never know what you have until you lose it. Wonder how life would be like if 9/11 never happened.
