Before the September 11 attacks in 2001, Ground Zero was the site of the World Trade Center in New York City, which included the iconic Twin Towers. The complex also housed several other buildings, including the World Trade Center 3 (the Marriott World Trade Center Hotel) and World Trade Center 4 (the South Plaza Building). The site was a major center for international trade and commerce. After the attacks, it was transformed into a memorial and the new One World Trade Center was built as part of the rebuilding efforts.
