• Both towers stood at 110 stories high.
• The last building completed in the complex, 4 WTC, was built in 1977.
• More than 200,000 tons of steel were used in the construction.
• Enough concrete was used to create a five-foot wide sidewalk from New York City to Washington, D.C.
• The WTC had the largest refrigeration plant in the world, cooling 60,000 tons daily when it was in operation.
• Transmissions on the massive antenna on 1 WTC began in June 1980. It stood 360 feet tall, and supported 10 main television antennas and a host of auxiliary antennas.
