[Nettime-bold] Tribeca report

[gh@popstar.com]

I live 8 blocks north of the world trade center.  My 
view is south facing the towers.  I saw and 
videtaped the whole thing.  Its a video I'd rather not 
have.  The Friday previous to the attack I was at 
the Trade center changing airplane tickets.  One 
month ago I went up to the top with my 
brother-in-law, his teenage daughter and his wife. 
My Street Harrison Street is being used as a 
major staging area for the clean-up and rescue 
operations.  Yesterday they were cleaning 
asbestos off emergency vehicles.  The police 
have barricaded the cross street in lower 
Manhattan. You have show a photon identification 
to go back to your home.  Twice when I tried to go 
through a barricade to get to my home I was 
turned away by a cop even though I had proper ID.  
We have no subway service. The grocery stores & 
restaurants are all closed.  My car is parked on a 
pier below 14th street on the river.  I don't know 
whether they'll let me get it.  We are all in shock 
here.  I walked my wife up to a working subway 
station in the village at 6th ave & Bleecker. The 
whole of 6th ave was lined with hundreds of dump 
trucks coming from New Jersey. They were 
pointed downtown ready to clear the debris. The 
street was lined with people who applauded and 
cheered on the men driving the trucks.
