I am fine. 

From my building on 5th Avenue at the CUNY Graduate Center, large plumes of smoke from the World Trade Center can be seen, although the Trade Center buildings themselves are gone. We are located several miles uptown. 

The street downstairs -- Fifth Avenue -- is crowded with people walking uptown. Lower Manhattan is closed.

Public transportation is still at a standstill.

All entry and exit to Manhattan is closed, including all the tunnels and bridges that bring commuters in and out.

We have hundreds of employees who we will have to take care of this evening if they cannot leave the island of Manhattan for Westchester, Long Island, and New Jersey.

But people are doing very well, with minimal panic. It is possible that people are actually more stunned than calm.

At first we were a bit concerned about the Empire State building being a potential target, given our proximity to that building, but we feel we need to stay open as a refuge for all of our professors and students who have nowhere to go.

It is hard it imagine, given the reports, that anything less than thousands of people have perished.

The mayor has moved his emergency headquarters away from its lower Manhattan site to a now undisclosed location.

It is surreal watching this unfold.
