WTC7 was a 47-storey building which underwent a spectacular freefall collapse in its own footprint, relegated in Wikipedia to a fraction of a paragraph. Although completely unprecedented, this was not only predicted but announced by the BBC before it happened.

The original WTC7 (World Trade Center 7) was a 47-storey reinforced steel building. It became a small heap of rubble in just 7 seconds at 5:20pm on September 11th, 2001. It was not until two months after WTC7's destruction on 9/11 that the presence of CIA offices in the building was revealed. In a New York Times article published on November 4th, 2001, James Risen wrote:

"The agency's New York station was behind the false front of another federal organization, which intelligence officials requested that The Times not identify. The station was, among other things, a base of operations to spy on and recruit foreign diplomats stationed at the United Nations, while debriefing selected American business executives and others willing to talk to the C.I.A. after returning from overseas."

Original Building

Opened in 1987, clad in red exterior masonry, the original WTC7 occupied a trapezoidal footprint. In 1988, Salomon Brothers signed a long-term lease, and became the main tenants of the building, but had trouble filling the building. In addition to the CIA, other federal agencies with offices in Building 7 were the Department of Defense, Internal Revenue Service, Secret Service, and Security and Exchange Commission. New York City's Mayor Rudy Giuliani had his Office of Emergency Management on the 23^rd floor.

Freefall Collapse

A video from the archives shows the BBC reporting on the collapse of WTC Building 7 over twenty minutes before it fell at 5:20pm on the afternoon of 9/11. The incredible footage shows BBC reporter Jane Standley talking about the collapse of the Salomon Brothers Building while it remains standing in the live shot behind her head. How did the BBC know that it was going to collapse? And why did they report the collapse when it is clearly standing in the background?

At 5:20pm on September 11, the tower collapsed into its own footprint in the space of 7 seconds after it burned for about 7 hours. Although no concrete skyscraper had ever collapsed due to fire before, no one is known to have been killed or injured by the event since firefighters had been told all afternoon that it was liable to collapse or demolition, as was New York Mayor, Rudy Giuliani. Its destruction was announced as a " collapse" by CNN and BBC before it actually occureed.

Media Blackout of the Destruction

Full article: 9-11/WTC7/Destruction/Censorship

The commercially-controlled media had very little to say about the destruction once it had happened, and nothing at all for years afterwards - until it became widely known in 2007 by those researching the events of 9/11 - until producing a number of 'hit pieces' to attempt to discredit those doubting the US government's official story.

9-11/WTC7/Destruction	“I do know that that wall, I remember, was in danger and I think they made the decision based on the danger that it had in destroying other things-- that they did it in a controlled fashion.”	John Kerry
Frank Lowy	“Fifty days before 9/11, Frank Lowy and Larry Silverstein bought the World Trade Centre in New York (how unlucky was that?) at a time when there was a requirement for massively expensive renovation and asbestos removal from the buildings: ‘To maintain the trade center as class-A office space commanding top rents, the Port Authority (previous owners) would have had to spend $800 million rebuilding the electrical, electronic communication, and cooling systems.’ The removal of asbestos raised this figure to well in excess of $1 billion. Lowy and Silverstein double-insured the WTC for multiple terrorist attacks (meaning they could claim for the same damage twice if two planes or attacks were involved) and collected $4.577 billion for WTC’s 1, 2, 4 and 5 and $861 million for WTC7. Total $5,438,000,000. This man is obviously a business genius...or something.”	Frank Lowy Kevin Boyle	28 April 2016

Description

9-11/WTC7/Destruction

Compared to the WTC Twin Towers, few people have seen video footage of the collapse of the 47-story WTC building 7, but the event was predicted and recorded by at least 3 TV networks and exactly resembles a controlled demolition. The event was subject to a news blackout by commercially controlled media for years afterwards, no mention of WTC7 was made in the 9/11 Commission's final report and Wikipedia has no separate page for this event.
