This section has been prepared by management of the Port Authority and should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto, which follow this section. Overview of 2008 Financial Results Net assets of the Port Authority increased $894 million in 2008. Gross operating revenues totaled $3.5 billion in 2008, representing a $336 million increase over 2007. The increase was primarily due to higher toll and fare revenues, reflecting the impact of revised toll and fare schedules which became effective at the Port Authority’s six vehicular crossings and the Port Authority Trans-Hudson rail system on March 2, 2008; higher rentals from fixed and activity-based rental agreements at the Port Authority’s Aviation and Port facilities; and higher revenues from cost recovery agreements with the airlines. Operating and maintenance expenses totaled $2.5 billion in 2008, which is $216 million higher than 2007. The increase was primarily due to the assessment of liquidated damages for delays in turning over various components of the World Trade Center sites for Towers 2, 3 and 4 to the Silverstein net lessees; higher contract service costs, mainly attributable to maintenance dredging, the operation of John F. Kennedy International (JFK), Newark Liberty International (EWR) and Stewart International (SWF) Airports; higher E-ZPass Program costs; and higher pollution remediation costs reflecting the adoption of Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 49, Accounting and Financial Reporting for Pollution Remediation Obligations (GASB Statement No. 49). Depreciation and amortization expense increased by $24 million in 2008 compared to 2007, primarily reflecting the full year impact of transferring $900 million of construction in progress to completed construction in 2007; the transfer of $1.8 billion to completed construction in 2008, including $567 million associated with the new jetBlue Terminal at JFK; and increased investment in regional programs. Net recoverable amounts related to the events of September 11, 2001 increased by $462 million in 2008 compared to 2007, primarily due to the resolution of a portion of the Port Authority’s property damage and business interruption insurance claims relating to the events of September 11, 2001 with certain of the insurers participation in 3 Management’s Discussion and Analysis (continued) the coverage applicable to such claims. Non-operating revenues consisting of financial income, Passenger Facility Charges (PFCs), other contributions and insurance proceeds decreased by $967 million in 2008 compared to 2007. The decrease was primarily due to the global settlement of the World Trade Center net lessees’, including 1 World Trade Center LLC (1 WTC LLC) and WTC Retail LLC, September 11, 2001 property damage and business interruption insurance claims in 2007, and as a result of market valuation adjustments to investment securities. Other Activities Through its ongoing capital plan, the Port Authority continues to demonstrate its commitment to the continued growth and economic competitiveness of the region. • Capital spending by the Port Authority reached $2.4 billion in 2008 with nearly $1 billion spent on the redevelopment of the World Trade Center site, and in excess of $600 million spent on projects designed to maintain the safety and security of the agency’s facilities. • The Port Authority’s 2009 Budget includes in excess of $3.3 billion in capital spending for investment in key regional projects such as the continued rebuilding of the World Trade Center site; the Access to the Region’s Core Project (the ARC Project); the modernization of the PATH System, including the rollout of a new fleet of PATH railcars; and the continued modernization of Terminal B at Newark Liberty International Airport. The Port Authority issued a report outlining a comprehensive road map designed to guide the ongoing rebuilding efforts at the World Trade Center site and bring a new level of certainty and control to the project. Among other things, the report sets forth a new timetable for completion of the Freedom Tower between the second and fourth quarters of 2013 at a cost of approximately $3.1 billion, and for completion of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub of between the fourth quarter of 2013 and the second quarter of 2014 at a cost of approximately $3.2 billion. In addition, a construction solution was developed that allows for decoupling of the construction of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub and the National September 11 Memorial & Museum, thereby ensuring the completion of the Memorial Plaza by September 11, 2011. 4 Management’s Discussion and Analysis (continued) On June 30, 2008, the Board of Commissioners certified its opinion relating to the ARC Project as an additional facility of the Port Authority, and increased the total project authorization for the Port Authority’s participation in the project to $3 billion. The ARC Project, which is currently estimated to cost $8.7 billion, is expected to include the construction of a new passenger rail tunnel under the Hudson River and a new underground

It was written in conjunction with four other papers studying World Trade Centers (WTCs) sites in Taipei, Amsterdam, Curacao and Portland (Oregon). These sites represent a cross-section of the various trade and economic environments that World Trade Centers operate in around the globe. Each of these studies examines the extent to which the owner/developer, the tenants and other regional public and private concerns have benefitted through their involvement with these highly specialized real estate developments. The New York World Trade Center is unique from all other World Trade Centers in several respects.

  • A Critical Review of the 9/11 Mysteries Viewer's Guide
    A Critical Review of the “9/11 Mysteries Viewer’s Guide” By Adam Taylor Version 1.0 Introduction: The film 9/11 Mysteries Part 1: Demolitions was one of the first professionally made independent films regarding alternative theories surrounding the events of September 11th, 2001.[1] In particular, the film focused on the numerous anomalies concerning the collapse of the WTC. The film was praised by numerous members of the so-called 9/11 Truth Movement: "Excellent. The best of the 9/11 movies." -- David Ray Griffin "WOW! is my reaction to this movie. Great insight into demolitions and what really happened on 9/11/2001." -- Steven E. Jones "An outstanding contribution to understanding 9/11. Simply superb." -- James H. Fetzer Regardless of this praise, many have also criticized the film based on allegations that the film presents false information, illogical fallacies, and cherry-picked sources. The most extensive criticism has been developed by a person named “Shane,” calling himself “The Doc” on the internet.[2] The Doc’s first criticism came in the form of a film called “Screw 9/11 Mysteries,” a version of the original film subtitled with comments by The Doc.[3] Over two and half hours in length, this edited version of 9/11 Mysteries critiqued practically every point of the film. Soon after, The Doc also developed a written essay titled “9/11 Mysteries Viewer’s Guide.”[4] This essay expanded on the points made in Screw 9/11 Mysteries, and is over 130 pages in length. The essay was made to refute the entire film, using the film’s online transcript.[5] 1 It should be noted that 9/11 Mysteries has also been criticized by other members of the Truth Movement as well.[6] The most extensive critique of the film by a proponent of the controlled demolition theory was done by software engineer Jim Hoffman.[7] I myself strongly disagree with several points the film makes.

    Architecture and Density If we want density, FOR MOST OF their history, cities have tended to be dense, with relatively is going up the only way? tall buildings a key feature. The attacks of 9/11 struck at the notion that density and tall buildings are desirable. In the wake of the collapse of the World Trade Center towers, many people claimed that terrorism spelled the end of the sky- scraper. But density is a primary feature of the twenty-first century.

    UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI DATE: May 15, 2003 I, James Gilbert Jenkins , hereby submit this as part of the requirements for the degree of: Master of Architecture in: The Department of Architecture of the College of DAAP It is entitled: New World Trade Approved by: Michael McInturf Arati Kanekar NEW WORLD TRADE A thesis submitted to the Division of Research and Advanced Studies of the University of Cincinnati in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of MASTER OF ARCHITECTURE In the Department of Architecture Of the College of Design, Art, Architecture, and Planing 2003 by James G. Jenkins B.S., University of Cincinnati, 2001 Committee Chair : Michael Mcinturf Abstract In these Modern Times, “facts” and “proofs” seem necessary for achieving any credibility in a field where there is a client. To arrive at a “truth,” many architects quickly turn to a dictionary for the final “truth” of a word, such as “privacy” or to a road map to find the “truth” in site conditions, or to a census count for the “truth” of people migration. It is, of coarse, part of the Modern Crisis that many feel the need to go with the way of technology, for fear that Architecture might otherwise fall by the wayside because of its perceived irrelevancy or frivolousness. Following this action, with time, could very well reduce Architecture to a form of methodology and inevitably end with the replacement or removal of the profession from its importance- as creators of a “Truth.” The following thesis is a serious reclamation. The body of work moves to take back for Architecture its power, and specifically it holds up and praises the most important thing we have, but in modern times have been giving away: Life.
