NYC Releases 170K Pages on 9/11 Air Quality | New York City News

Twenty-five years after 9/11, New York City just released over 170,000 pages of hidden air quality documents — the result of a decades-long legal battle. Mayor Mamdani admitted leaders misled responders, telling them the air was safe when it wasn’t, and failed to act as people fell ill. Advocates rage that earlier access could’ve saved lives, while officials like the former EPA head face scrutiny. Records reveal dangerous asbestos levels near Ground Zero and even a memo from Giuliani’s deputy mayor warning of future lawsuits. This release comes from a settlement with 9/11 Health Watch, and the city’s Department of Investigation is now probing how badly things were handled back then.
