The question is what was the Manhattan Demolition truck doing driving around near the towers at the time of the planes hitting?

Check out the truck at about time 2:50

 A while back when this truck was discovered, I called Manhattan Demolition to find out what they do. They don't do actual demolitions with explosives like Controlled Demolitions, Inc. They mainly clean up demolition and construction sites. Hence the Manhattan Demolition truck being a trash truck.

I think he said they do small demolitions with bulldozers and knock small buildings down. But nothing with explosives and mostly just cleanup. I made a post back then somewhere on this forum when this topic came up.

Yes i checked on them also and they do small demolitions.

But the problem i have is what were they doing already there as the buildings are being hit.

I wouldn't say they were "already there". There's always construction going on somewhere in NYC at any given time. If you look in videos, there is a construction site not too far from the WTC where you can see tall cranes sticking up out of Manhattan. I don't think there's anything nefarious about a trash truck driving through Manhattan.

I don't recall Manhattan Demolition as being one of the companies involved in the WTC cleanup anyway.

I know some of construction and demolition companies that were there.

I have sent e-mail to few. Tully Construction was the biggest company there but stated they could not answer my questions due to the 9/11 lawsuits.
