Lower Manhattan since 9/11: A Study in Resilience

Jason Bram and Joelle Scally

No 20161019, Liberty Street Economics from Federal Reserve Bank of New York

Abstract: The 9/11 terrorist attack on the World Trade Center left a deep scar on New York City and the nation, most particularly in terms of the human toll. In addition to the lives lost and widespread health problems suffered by many others?in particular by first responders and recovery workers?the destruction of billions of dollars? worth of property and infrastructure led to severe disruptions to the local economy. Nowhere were these disruptions more severe and long-lasting than in the neighborhoods closest to Ground Zero.
