Mayor Menino on Leading Boston Through 9/11


Mayor Menino on Leading Boston Through 9/11. Menino reflected on leading Boston through the morning of the 9/11 attacks, and after: “… we got these phone calls from the airport saying they didn’t know how many planes left Logan Airport — two, four, six, they really didn’t know — that went down to New York. And that was definitely the toughest thing because everybody’s looking to Boston, everybody thought I run the airport, I have no say in the airport, but all the news media is calling me and I felt useless because I couldn’t tell you anything.” [WBUR.org]
