Sixteen minutes later, at 09:03, the World Trade Center's South Tower was hit by United Airlines Flight 175. Join this Sunday, September 8, 2024 - This stair climb is a way to remember those who were lost on 9/11/2001. THE FIRST 200 TO REGISTER WILL RECEIVE AN EVENT CHALLENGE COIN! There were 110 stories in each of the Twin Towers, so you will have the opportunity to climb as our fallen heroes did. Keeping in mind, it's the memory and awareness that is most important, you can climb as many stairs as you are able, you do not have to complete the full 110 flights.
