Original Note:
Larry Silverstein made a statement in a PBS documentary that has been misinterpreted. He mentioned the decision to “pull” the building. However, Silverstein's spokesperson clarified that he was referring to pulling firefighters out of the building, not demolishing it. https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2022/09/23/fact-check-world-trade-center-building-7-collapsed-due-fire/10428919002/ https://www.nist.gov/world-trade-center-investigation/study-faqs/wtc-7-investigation https://peimpact.com/the-collapse-of-world-trade-center-building-7/
