In 2001 on 9-11, many people saw or were affected by the disaster involving 110 story buildings. Back in 1992 people had no frame of reference for 9-11 & 110 public shelters. Yet 9-11 & 110 was apparent back then.

In an earlier plan, the 2 big WTC buildings would have been just a little north of where 55_Water_Street is.
So ironically, the New_Pearl_Harbor could have occurred much closer to the intersection of, Pearl+Street+Wall+Street.

It could have been built & destroyed on either side of Lower_Manhattan.

The original choice for the WTC site was for it to be on the East River side & was to feature 2 big slabs.
These 2 slabs would have been on either side of 120-wall-street.
The south slab was to be a tall & wide office tower. The north slab would appear like a tower that's laying down on its side. Curiously, the slab on its side would have featured 2 big squares.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Construction_of_the_World_Trade_Center#Original_plans
When the WTC site was finally chosen to be on the Hudson River side, the 2 big squares were omitted from the design. The 2 wide slabs became the two iconic tall & slender towers. However, in the years after the destruction of the WTC, the 2 big squares were eventually worked back into the overall site rebuilding plan.
Today the 1776' tall One_World_Trade_Center has become the centerpiece of the old & New World_Trade_Center_site.

The City of Honolulu and Time Travel, etc.
The City_and_County_of_Honolulu contains Pearl_Harbor.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Base_Pearl_Harbor-Hickam
Back in the day, Pearl_Harbor was still part of the Island of Oahu, which in turn was in Oahu County.
"DISTRICT VII: Kalihi, Kapālama, Pālama, Iwilei, Sand Island, Māpunapuna, Airport, Hickam, Pearl Harbor, Ford Island..."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honolulu_County,_Hawaii#County_districts
District 7 is right next to District 6, where Downtown_Honolulu is located. Honolulu_Harbor is on the edge of the Central_Business_District where an interesting pattern has developed over time.
The Aloha_Tower opened in 1926 on 9-11.
Something very interesting happened in that area during the late 1960s & the early 1970s.
Downtown_Honolulu was getting its first big twin office building complex.
http://wirednewyork.com/forum/showthread.php?t=21249&page=14
Of course, the twin Topa+Towers were nowhere near the size of the giant ones in NYC. Yet, somehow Oahu was getting it first set of big twin office building at the same time that Manhattan was getting its giant twin towers. The ones in Honolulu were built just a couple of blocks north of the 9-11 Aloha Tower. They even seem to be a similar, but smaller echo of the giant ones in NYC. http://www.topafinancialcenter.com/Content/About_The_Property.htm
http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:HAWAII-DOWNTOWN,_HONOLULU_(OAHU_I)_-_NARA_-_553790.jpg
So, the Aloha_Tower becomes the tallest building in Hawaii in 1926 on 9-11. Then by the late 1960s twin office buildings are built close to it. Around the same time a construction project of gigantic twin towers starts in NYC. But while the ones in Honolulu still safely stand close to the 9-11 Aloha_Tower, the giant ones in NYC get destroyed on 9-11 in what becomes the New_Pearl_Harbor.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Final_Countdown_(film) 1980
The_Final_Countdown is an interesting time travel movie, but in the late 1950s Rod_Serling was about to take TV into the ZONE. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWgLiuDAaAw
http://www.rodserling.com/NYTtelement.htm,
http://twilightzonevortex.blogspot.ca/2012/10/the-time-element.html
"Many years after the end of World War II, a man named Peter Jenson (William Bendix) visits a psychoanalyst, Dr. Gillespie (Martin Balsam). Jenson tells of a recurring dream where he tries to warn people about the "sneak attack" on Pearl Harbor, but in his dream the warnings are disregarded. Dr. Gillespie insists that time travel is impossible given the nature of temporal paradoxes. Jenson finally reveals that he was actually in Honolulu on December 7, 1941. While on the couch, Jenson falls asleep once again and dreams that the Japanese planes flying overhead shoot and kill him. In Dr. Gillespie's office, the couch Jenson was lying on is now empty. Dr. Gillespie goes to a bar where he finds Jenson's picture on the wall. The bartender tells him that Jenson had tended there, but was killed during the Pearl Harbor attack."
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Twilight_Zone#Plot
Its fascinating how RS wanted to start things off in the late 1950s with a potential TV series involving time travel & other classic sci-fi themes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZU2KirnCUZM
{"The Time Element" was Serling's 1957 pilot pitch for his show, a time travel adventure about a man who travels back to Honolulu in 1941 and unsuccessfully tries to warn everyone about the impending attack on Pearl Harbor. The script, however, was rejected and shelved for a year until Bert Granet discovered and produced it as an episode of Desilu Playhouse in 1958.[11] The show was a huge success and enabled Serling to finally begin production on his anthology series, The Twilight Zone."}
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Twilight_Zone_(1959_TV_series)#Development,
https://myspace.com/thetzom/video/the-time-element/56564582
So, with the pre-TZ pilot being very popular, The_Twilight_Zone_TV_series was given the green light. While the pre-TV pilot has its connection with Pearl Harbor, the first episode of The_Twilight_Zone series has an interesting connection with 9-11.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RN4sPnIXySY
Where_Is_Everybody stars Earl_Holliman, who happens to be born on 9-11-1928. So in effect, the TZ has a strong synchronicity with Pearl Harbor & an actor born on 9-11.

4 years after the release of The Final Countdown there was, The_Philadelphia_Experiment movie. Officially, there wasn't any actual Philadelphia_Experiment. However, there really was a USS_Eldridge, a ship with a peculiar name. http://www.history.navy.mil/faqs/faq21-1.htm,
http://www.straightdope.com/columns/read/523/did-the-u-s-navy-teleport-ships-in-the-philadelphia-experiment
Its quite interesting to name a navy ship after,
Lieutenant Commander John_Eldridge,_Jr. of Scouting Squadron 71 who as of 9-11-1941 becomes a man with a key command position that started on 9-11. That also happened to be the day that construction of The_Pentagon commenced.
http://www.history.com/news/9-things-you-may-not-know-about-the-pentagon
"From 11 September 1941 he was Commander, Scouting Squadron 71, attached to Wasp (CV-7). Lieutenant Commander Eldridge was killed in action in the Solomons 2 November 1942."

Not Exactly Father and Son...
"During his time at Stowe, Cavill met actor Russell Crowe, who was at the school filming scenes for Proof of Life. Cavill was an extra, and used the opportunity to ask Crowe for advice on an acting career. Later, Cavill and Crowe played son and father in the Superman film Man of Steel."

Here is a more in depth reference article.

Here is a more in depth reference article.
{"Henry Cavill believes that his entry into professional acting began when he encountered Russell Crowe. The campus of Stowe School was being used as a backdrop for the kidnap thriller Proof of Life, and Henry was among extras. It was a brief meeting that inspired him to continue with his craft.
“I took his hand and said, ‘Hi, Mr. Crowe. My name is Henry, and I’m thinking of becoming an actor. What’s it like?’ And we talked just a bit,” Henry recalls. “A few days later I got a signed picture of him in Gladiatorthat said, ‘Dear Henry, the journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.’ You can imagine how I felt when I got to the end of that first journey of a thousand miles and I’m working with Russell Crowe... And you know, I don’t want it to end.” Indeed, Cavill and Crowe had been filming Zack Snyder’s Man of Steel, with Cavill playing Superman and Crowe, the hero’s doomed alien father, Jor-El."} http://henrycavill.org/en/hc/acting-career

120 Wall Street, NYC
While most office towers average 12' to 13 feet per floor, some older ones were built at around 11 feet per floor. This would still allow for 8 foot floor to ceiling vertical clearance. The windows go up to the 35th floor & there is the equivalent of 2 service floors above that. This bulky building is easy to spot in several old & new pictures. Thus, its easy to see where the original location choice was going to be for the WTC.
It could have been built & destroyed on either side of Lower_Manhattan.
The original choice for the WTC site was for it to be on the East River side & was to feature 2 big slabs.
These 2 slabs would have been on either side of 120-wall-street.
The south slab was to be a tall & wide office tower. The north slab would appear like a tower that's laying down on its side. Curiously, the slab on its side would have featured 2 big squares.
When the WTC site was finally chosen to be on the Hudson River side, the 2 big squares were omitted from the design. The 2 wide slabs became the two iconic tall & slender towers. However, in the years after the destruction of the WTC, the 2 big squares were eventually worked back into the overall site rebuilding plan.
