Installation View: Architecture

This section features the original presentation model of the World Trade Center--the only surviving large scale model of the buildings--made by its architects Yamasaki and Associates. It stands c.100 inches tall on a base of approximately 6 feet square. Materials in the cases include various brochures and magazine articles on the design of the towers that show how the model was photographed and used to promote and publicize the project. Other photos show views of the completed interior, including offices, reception areas, and the Windows on the World restaurant.
