One needs to have the lay of the land when trying to understand what happened. Liberty Street was the east-west street which bordered the WTC site to the south and West Broadway was to the north-south street to the north beginning on Vesey Street which ran between WTC 1 and WTC 7. The building being taken down was on Liberty street and was build by Bankers Trust and sold to DeutcheBank. which was about 250' south of WTC 2. 30 West Broadway was a very short block north of WTC 7 and was damaged from WTC 7's collapse which obviously was not completely inside its footprint.
