Photographed from a single perspective on September 5th, 6th, 8th, 11th, 12th, and October 1st in the year 2001, The Tower Age is the true story of a kid, his camera, his Brooklyn fire escape, and the resulting array of images that document the twilight and death of the Twin Towers–an archive so unique that it amounts to a kind of time-lapse of the unfolding of history.Beginning on September 5th with photographs of the sun blazing through the Twin Towers and ending just twenty-five days later on October 1st when the towers had completely vanished from the skyline, The Tower Age is a singular photographic account of the now-hallowed air above the City.
