From where his office is?? Since nothing seems to come out of his mouth that even resembles the truth, I wonder if he's telling the truth when he claims to have seen the two towers coming down. 1.) Were the towers even visible from his office in the Trump Tower? (have no idea where that is). 2) How did he know they were going to come down? Was he in the habit of just gazing at the WTC nonstop in case something happened? I though of posting this under Politics but I my real query is the geography. Any info welcome.

Persons from New Jersey, Staten Island, Brooklyn, Queens and Manhattan watched the entire 9/11/01 events unfold including the Towers imploding. So yes, depending upon where Mr. Trump's office was he would have had a ring side seat.
You could have stood on Seventh Avenue or many other streets/avenues from say Mid-town and looked south and saw what was going on. The nurses and other staff at former Saint Vincent's hospital in GV saw what was going on as well.

You realize the Twin Towers didn't just randomly collapse right? They got hit by Airplanes and the South Tower Collapsed an hour later, by that time the whole country was watching. Him seeing the events of 9/11 is something everyone over the age of 20 can say.

Instead of fact finding these events, how about fact finding on issues? Anyone within 20mi radius can see it well. Find something else to bash Trump for.
How bout the Feds and Bush that did practically nothing for the workers of the 9-11 site?
If his office was above the 20th floor and not north-facing (it'd be in Midtown Manhattan) good chance he could see them. I think it's common for executives to have an office on a higher floor, so likely.
My mom said some in her office went to the rooftop (or was it a floor near the top of the building?) to get a view of the World Trade Center.

Millions of people,including me, "saw them falling" on TV. Also, someone as involved as he is in the business and money community of NYC could well have been downtown around Wall Street at the time it happened for any number of reasons.
So,either way, it doesn't matter where his office is and he probably did have a view from his office anyway…..if not from the office itself certainly from his buildings roof top which I'm sure he has open access to. By the time the buildings finally came down,millions of people in the NYC area were doing exactly that….up on rooftops watching.

As someone who saw it from their office, I can say the whole office was at the window watching the huge smoke plume rise over the city. We could see for a while before they each individually fell.
As to where you should post it, given your "in case something happened" comment - like they just suddenly fell down without the preceding inferno and smoke ... post it under the absolutely clueless section.

Yes--we could see it from parts of Queens on the Nassau border
A lot of people saw it by that time, the media was also focused on it. What a lot of people did not see with their own eyes were the actual impacts the buildings took.
