in new york, the empire state building is by far the oldest. t a10 days. the building really captured the imagination of hollywood and ended up playing a pretty big part in the movies itself, like in king kong... ..the rom—com sleepless in seattle, and one of my absolute favourites, the musical on the town. even today, it's still one of the most visited attractions in new york city, usually welcoming about 4 million people every year who get to come up here and take in those beautiful views. it is amazing to witness their reaction when they step out into any of our observatories, whether it be the 86th floor or the 102nd floor. you can hear them gasp. he oversaw renovations for the brand—new observation deck on the 102nd floor, which opened a few months before the pandemic. we went into the design phase and started thinking about, "how do we get out of the way of the views?" we're able to reveal the beams. you know, the steel is a big part of the history of the building, the fact that it was erected at a rate of four—and—a—half storeys per week.

i was curious how much it costs in comparison to the empire state building. ing is the same price if you do the outdoor observatory. if you do the 102nd is $75. those are all your options if you are visiting new york city. >> that is pretty cold. i like that. thanks for all that information. let's take a look at what is going on. taking a look at sfo, where it is cloudy this morning. we have drizzle possible both weekend mornings. a chance of showers also. wildfire concerns sundayundayuny monday. hot and dry conditions early next week. today very comfortable in most neighborhoods. santa clara 76. gilroy 79. 67 santa cruz. low to mid 70's for the rest of the peninsula. at the coast, we are looking around 60 to 64. downtown south san francisco 66 to 68. mid 70's to near 80 through most of the northbay valleys. east bay 70 to 76. berkeley, east bay valleys around 80 san ramon. widespread drizzle tonight. cloudy conditions and temperatures in the 50's. here is a look at that atmospheric river, british columbia, washington, oregon. we get the tail end of it. weaken

when someone said walk north, she was afraid of being near the empire state building because she thoughtt was all -- it would also be a target. that brings to mind the fact that we didn't know at that time that this was the beginning or the end of the attack. she decided to go with karen and karen said come with me and tammy describes being a puppy dog and followed her because she had confidence and said this is what we will do and karen lived in new jersey. what tammy didn't realize is by following karen, she was walking straight toward the trade centers, toward the disaster. the two of them got caught in the collapse of the first tower. they stood at the seawall and jumped in. tammy explained that she knew she couldn't breathe because of the debris in the air so she jumped in the water and she dumped her head. and she said maybe there will be some oxygen under the water. they realized the current was incredibly strong. then they were clinging to the cement blocks of the seawall, digging in with their fingers to hold on. that's when they realize there was a fireboat right there, a boat

you know a plane hit the empire state building in 1945?o when they built them 20 towers, they built it on that same thing. steel, glass and cement. it was built with -- did you know how that was built? the twin towers? jesse? host: no, telus. caller: when they was at the school, and they hit, 93 was 14 minutes late. they are in the air with george bush and he is really kick back and comfortable. he said we need to ground these planes. we can get a hold of 93. bush said take it down. why won't he come and say that? why didn't you say he said that? this is not a conspiracy theory, jesse. he said that. host: do you remember where you were when you heard about 9/11? caller: yes, i do. i do. at that time i was shooting heroin. that was back in 2001 and i was mad because i couldn't get a ride to get my dope. i said some jerk flew into the towers. then i see another one coming. i just want to go get my dope. i come back, i started watching it. i'm thinking, they are going to get these guys out of the basement. they are going to save these people.

geography and when someone said we will just walk north, she was afraid of being near the empire state building, because she thought it would also be a target. that sort of brings to mind the fact that, we did not know at that time if this was the beginning or the end of the attack. so she decided to go with karen and karen said come with me, and tammy describes being like a little puppy dog, she just followed her because she had confidence and was like, this is what we were going to do. karen lived in new jersey. what tammy did not realize is that by following karen she was washing -- she was walking straight towards the disaster. the two of them got caught in the blast of the first tower. they stood at the seawall and jumped in. and the way tammy explained it was that, she knew she could not breathe because of the debris in the air. so she jumped in the water and she kept dunking her head thinking, even though does not make sense, maybe there would be some oxygen to breathe under the water. so she kept bobbing down, the two of them bobbing down and bobbing back up. then they realized that the

no billowing smoke plume or in b-25 that hit another building back in '45 well at time the empire state buildinguch a beautiful day. honestly, what happens then still feels like science fiction. i was stuck in lockdown at 14 wall street, not far and all i could think was that if there were a couple more floors in those towers, and they fell, maybe they'd take our building down too. that or maybe one more plane could be heading our way or across the street from the new york stock exchange. no one knew anything that morning. don't let anyone tell you other wise and then it happened once not twice. i never heard a sound that loud. and everything went black. not once but twice two terrorist made eclipses of the sun. after a time the fire department let us out and i recall it snowing. snowing hard accumulating one to two inches and i looked up to see how it could be possibly snowing on such a clear day and then i look down at the dust that covered my shoes. i made up shredded pieces of research, mostly dean whiter, i saw a recommendation of a couple of tech stocks but who knew what that contained i k

it and i said well i kind of dismissed it as maybe a small plane that used to fly into the empire state building when i was a little kid in bad weather and he said no, no, no, it's not a little plane. basically, what unfolded from that very second was the horror that we all experienced. i got off the phone, i went downstairs to go to the exchange as i normally would but i was in a hurry to get there because of what we perceived was going on. i got to the street and it was complete chaos. paper everywhere, people running and screaming all different directions. you really couldn't find out anything. obviously i wasn't in front of the radio of the tv, but clearly , there was a huge, huge problem, and i called upstairs to my office and i said everybody get out of the office, come down to the street. i called the floor, some of our people stayed on the floor, some left. we met in the street and basically we got inundated by this cloud of dust we were standing on broad street when the first tower went down and then the second tower and we eventually made our way over to the east river because we wante
