Lookin' from Brooklyn

I worked downtown NYC many years and was eyewitness to the 9/11/2001 attack. The Towers were my photographic neighbor and this series is my heartfelt salute to them... First in a series (and Set) about lower Manhattan "Before Ground Zero", all photos focusing on the World Trade Center's Twin Towers. This was taken about 1983-84 before the Brooklyn waterfont - with rotted pier pilings as ghostly sentinels - between the Brooklyn and Manhattan (out of view to right) Bridges was "cleaned up".
