Photographer and artist Robert A. Ripps has lived and worked on N. Moore Street since 1988, raising his two sons here. In addition to teaching photography, Robert volunteers with a number of schools, not-for-profits and humanitarian organizations, including the GMHC, the Pablove Foundation, Tribeca Trust and Cut Red Tape 4 Heroes.

To commemorate the 20th anniversary of 9/11, I asked several neighbors to recall that day and their experience. This post contains Robert’s photos from the roof of a friend’s apartment building near the World Trade Center taken on Sept. 26 and again on Nov. 26, as well as views from other rooftops. See the two other posts for his photos from Sept. 11 and those from the streets of the neighborhood on Sept. 12.
