Sugimoto’s footage, captured from the roof of a building at 64 St Marks Place in New York City, offers a unique view of the towers collapsing from the north. The video shows the towers billowing with smoke before falling, providing a “unique perspective not seen from the south or east,” noted one viewer. Since its release on July 23, 2023, the footage has generated widespread discussion online. One user reflected, “Makes me wonder how much history is being stored in people’s attics or basements waiting to be unearthed.” Sugimoto’s decision to share this footage not only adds a new visual layer to 9/11 but also strengthens the collective memory of an event that shaped the 21st century.
