Windows on the World
Windows on the World was a group of venues at the top floors (106th and 107th) of the North Tower of the World Trade Center. It included Windows on the World, a smaller restaurant which was called Wild Blue, and a bar which was called The Greatest Bar on Earth. The restaurant was destroyed in the September 11 attacks.
In 2000, Windows on the World was the highest-earning restaurant in the United States. It earned a total of US$37 million.[1]
It has also been speculated that "The Falling Man" was Jonathan Briley, an audio technician at the Windows on the World restaurant but his identity was never released.[2]
There were plans to rebuild Windows on the World during the building of One World Trade Center but those plans were scrapped on March 7, 2011.[3]
