I worked a few blocks away from the WTC at the federal building across from the courthouses. I was in an elevator when the first plane hit, which shook the elevator and shot it down to the lobby of the building from the 36th floor. We then heard about the second plane hitting and evacuated the building-where I walked all the way to 94th street where I lived at the time. I was not aware the towers had collapsed until I got home 3 hrs later.
