In a sense, when the two towers collapsed, the city’s borders collapsed with them, allowing a tide of worldwide affection to wash over New York, softening its image as a place inhabited by rude and ruthless people. Indeed, even in its darkest days the city lives up to the slogan originally coined for the Plaza Hotel: “Nothing unimportant ever happens in New York.”
