six world trade center was first proposed in 1968 as part of the original world trade center complex. the building was designed by emery roth & sons, along with yamasaki associates. construction was completed in 1973. the original six world trade center was home to the u.s. customs service for the state of new york, from 1974 to 2001. it was a 537,693-square-foot (49,953-square-meter), eight-story building, the shortest in the world trade center complex. from the austin j. tobin plaza level, on which the main structure was built, it had a height of 92 feet (28 m) but was 105 feet (32 m) above the actual ground level. it was demolished following the destruction of the world trade center during the september 11 attacks, when 10 al-qaeda participants hijacked american airlines flight 11 and united airlines flight 175, crashing them into the twin towers. after burning for less than two hours, both 110-story towers collapsed. the collapse of the north tower destroyed six world trade center beyond repair, and the remnants of the building were pulled down using cables.

the twin towers ii (also known as twin towers 2, new twin towers, trump twin towers and world trade center phoenix) was a proposed twin-towered skyscraper complex which would have been located at the world trade center site in manhattan, new york city. the proposed complex would have replaced the former twin towers of the world trade center destroyed in the september 11 attacks, restoring the skyline of the city to its former state. the main design for the proposed complex would feature new landmark twin towers, nearly identical to the originals designed by minoru yamasaki, though it would feature 115 stories—5 floors taller than the originals, among other differences. beside the towers, an above-ground memorial would have occupied the footprints of the original towers. the new site would also have featured three 12-story buildings, replacing the original 3, 4 and 5 world trade center. the complex was designed and developed by american architect herbert belton and american engineer kenneth gardner, and sponsored by donald trump.
