Not sure. Either total collapse or partial collapse:

Twin Towers-2

7 World Trade Center, 6 World Trade Center, 5 World Trade Center, 4 World Trade Center, the Marriott World Trade Center and St. Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church

Maybe the web site will help you out.

>> 3 << ! There were 3 buildings in the "twin tower" collapse. I remember that clearly from the weeks after it happened. Why do I remember this more clearly than most seem to? Honestly, why? Was the news coverage in New Zealand better than here in the UK? I barely even watch TV! The expression I see on people's faces is quite clear when I point this out to them: it's the look of disbelief. They clearly have trouble believing what I'm saying. It's a very odd feeling.

Most people will say 2, but 3 collapsed. They often forget about this one:

World Trade Center Building 7.

-Barb and Stephen K, I suggest you check out that video if you only remember the towers going down.

-Benjamin F, also check out that video if you can’t remember. Yeah I found a better video. Nice try at what? Because I believe WTC 7 was brought down with controlled demolition? You didn’t even know that it happened, what does that say? Bottom line is I got the question right, you and the rest of the people here didn’t even know about WTC 7.

Here’s that video again since you asked for it

-Annie, check out that video.

3 collapsed. Two of them were the Win Towers, and the third was a nearby Marriott Hotel which collapsed after catching fire from stray ambers and burning debris earth-shaking crumble. Kinda weird too cuz it happened right next to a small church, and while everything else around it was covered in ash, the church wasn’t even phased… kinda weird huh?

And yeah I did check that link you provided Frank, and I ALSO checked out the OTHER one you had up there before you changed it to THIS one. Nice try buddy.

In the World Trade Center attack, seven buildings in that complex were destroyed.

Another ‘next door’ was just felled by a 7-alarm fire that killed 2 firefighters in the past week.

well technically it could be more than three if you go by the exact question. 3 in the attacks, but who knows how many more fell that day for seperate reasons. I know this is nit picking but it isnt meant that way at all, just trying to squeeze in a semi original answer.
