Empire State Building reopens deck to sightseers
2001-09-29
The Empire State Building reopened its observation deck for regular business Saturday, attracting hundreds of tourists -- some of whom had once planned to view the Manhattan skyline from the World Trade Center. As visitors returned to the 86th floor attraction, Mayor Rudolph Giuliani announced plans to do the opening monologue on the season debut of "Saturday Night Live." At the Empire State Building, more than 500 people had lined up by 10 a.m. Saturday to enjoy the view. Most appeared to be tourists, many from tours that were planned before the twin towers of the Trade Center crumbled.
