the World Trade Center structure.

I 'believe' it will be aired as an episode of the ongoing History
Channel series, Modern Marvels.

This never before aired program/episode, ironically, was put together
shortly BEFORE the 9-11 collapse and was conceived as a tribute to the
'engineering marvels' they were considered to be.

The folks at the History Channel, after much consideration, decided to
leave the program as originally structured and NOT change any of its
content to reflect the events of 9-11.
