Waters Weekly Wrap: September 7-11

This date is always a difficult one for many in the industry, as today marks the 14th anniversary of the terror attacks of September 11, 2001.

Waters will forever be tied to the tragic events that took place in New York that day, as the magazine held a morning conference at Windows on the World, a venue on the 106th floor of the World Trade Center's north tower.

Peter Field, president of what was Risk Waters at the time, wrote a touching piece describing that day, how a simple issue with his email on the morning of the attacks ended up saving his life, and memorializing those who were lost.
