A Gladstone Branch train departs out of Hoboken Terminal in the shadow of the Lower Manhattan skyline. 25 years ago to this day, this skyline would've been in a sense of order, with the Twin Towers of the World Trade Center dominating the scene. The next day, and in the 25 years since, this scene would enter into complete disorder and reorder, with the next One World Trade Center rising from the ashes of the fallen buildings. While this is now just a routine event, another train leaving to the suburbs at the end of another long day, it's still important to reflect on the lives lost, the courage displayed by citizens and first responders, and the desire to repair and rebuild something bigger and better in the face of horror and tragedy. Note: this photo was taken from Hoboken Tower with proper access and permission.
