In memory of the victims of the [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/September_11_attacks September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks] on the World Trade Center, [[User:Skyop|Skyop]] has modelled the now-destroyed North and South towers. The models are time-aware, so they appear on their top-off ceremony dates and disappear on their collapse times. The buildings feature night lighting and for 24 hours after their collapses, they become shining translucent monuments. See below for images: | |||
