The first time I drove over the bridge since 9-11, which was 2 or 3 years after, my mom pointed out where the towers used to be and I almost started bawling. STILL everytime we go to Brooklyn we are back and forth on the Verrazzano and that one expressway that goes between Bensonhurst and Carroll Gardens/South Brooklyn, and i look for that space and it's just weird and eerie. I can't imagine someone who's never experienced the towers having the same feelings.

She is not representative of the West Coast. Trust me. lol
Most people I've met get upset about it whenever they're confronted with it and some say it's gotten better with time just like most tragic incidents.
