Freedom Tower Gets First Restaurant

A good sign, by fits and starts the damage gets repaired:

NEW YORK (AP) -- Fresh bread will soon be baking high above ground zero.The new World Trade Center got its first restaurant Wednesday -- a sandwich shop at the top of the Freedom Tower under construction.


As the sun rose over the site of the Sept. 11 attack, a crane hoisted the Subway restaurant up the signature skyscraper that marks the rebirth of the trade center's 16 acres. The shipping containers-turned-eatery will open in January and keep moving up as the tower is built to 105 floors.


That was about the height of Windows on the World, a dining institution atop one of the original twin towers with a panoramic view of New York and its harbor.


All things pass.
