NMAH Story NMAH Story: Story How did you witness history on September 11th? Share your experience. I experienced September 11th as an elementary school teacher in lower Manhattan. My classroom is directly facing Greenwich St. which provided a direct line of sight to the towers. At the very beginning, I found myself in the street with hundreds of others, trying to make sense of what was happening. As the second plane hit and the buildings collapsed, my attention focused on evacuating students and connecting them with thier parents. I wound up being stuck in Manhattan until the next day...
