I volunteer on weekends down at St Paul's Chapel which is right next door to the platform and of course across the street from the destruction.

To be honest, I don't understand the demand to be on that platform. There truly is nothing to see. What is there is a big vacuous space which used to be the World Trade Center. If anything, it's very painful just to be down there. It looks like a giant construction zone with scattered cranes.

I don't understand it all. Maybe it's because I live there but I'll never understand why there are so many people down there. If I weren't volunteering, I'd want to avoid the area at all costs. In fact I did until I found out about St Paul's.
