Annotation:	He was at work at Lehman Brothers IT headquarters on the 40th floor of the World Trade Center when the plane hit.

He goes on to describe the scene as he and his colleagues left Manhattan for Brooklyn. This BBC online website also has links to the details of the four hijackings, a short synopsis of the World Trade Center disaster, photographs of the disasters, a list of the Twin Towers tenants, and a timeline of events.
