I have fond RL memories of flying the The Hudson River SFRA, pre 911, and it is great to be able to now do so again in MSFS2020, with its realistic Scenery, and see the Twin Towers back again.
Note: Some of the Bing scenery in MSFS seem to almost be of that era as well … so making the most of that before an inevitable update.
And of course, put an Operational Meigs back into MSFS is a Must (at least for me)
Hello everybody!
I thank you for your support and for appreciating this work, it means a lot to me to bring the WTC back to a virtual world where we can count on such realistic graphics and a dynamic world of weather and time, where we can relive the experience of being close and inside of the Towers in any situation.
I’d like to share my progress on the latest update coming soon, including on the platform’s Official Marketplace.
Lobby of the North and South Towers, WTC 7 and every block recreated, including the Verizon Building, St Nocholas Orthodox Church, the U.S Post Service and the 133 Liberty Building, among other improvements. Hope you like it!
@N6722C@NixieLion Thanks to everyone who supports this work and yes - the research and creation of handmade models of the streets around and inside the buildings, it’s been a year since the first 3D modeling started, it’s a dedicated job
I hope to publish the update and its version on the in-game marketplace this May
I would like to share a few more images of the development showing the North Tower Lobby entrance, Liberty Street and St Nicholas Greek Orthodox Church, Vesey Street and Church Street

Impressive work, and I will strongly support your efforts by purchasing this addon when you release it.
Just as I did when a re-constructed Meigs field was release, 1st by an independent developer, and later as an official (optional) update for MSFS 2020.
Never flew into Meigs in RL, but more time than I care to think about in various version of MSFS,
I’ll have to dig out the aerial Pics I took of the WTC back in 87.
Looking at an old log book, i few past the WTC twice , and around the Statue of Liberty on 2/1/87 on a VFR flight up and down the Hudson, to KHPN (White Plains)
This time we can fly the World Trade Center on PC through the Platform’s Official Marketplace, and in a few days we will also be able to get it on Xbox.
These screenshots are tests of the Xbox version on Series X, I hope you like it!
@RoProdMoraes Rodrigo, I wonder if you know - I am on xbox and have Samscene3D’s New York scenery pack.
Could I use both yours and his together or would I have to pick one or the other?
@EejayX Thank you for ask! the World Trade Center will arrive very soon on Xbox and, for now, unfortunately, it is only possible to use one or the other scenario, so as not to have a conflict.
Earlier, I emailed Samscene 3D, suggesting that an optional One World Trade Center exclusion file be created, similar to the exclusion package for the Kai Tak area in the scenery they built in Hong Kong.
So far, I haven’t gotten a response.
If it doesn’t bother you, you can send them an email too, suggesting the same idea, maybe this request will be granted, because it would be amazing to use both scenarios together
For now, for this to happen, we need this exclusion package on their side.
