The banner placed by Italian firemen September 10, 2002, flies in front of Pisa's leaning tower reading "From the tower to the towers" to commemorate the tragic events of a year ago. As the city of New York marks the first anniversary of the disaster that befell the World Trade Center towers in an attack on September 11, 2001, the firemen of Pisa will organize a minute of silence beginning at the same time the first World Trade Center tower was hit.
