The multi Jesuit trained Austin J. Tobin who actually thought of the project to build the World Trade Center in 1968 and was the "autocratic" head of the NY Port Authority for over 30 years--the World Trade Center was constructed while Tobin was head of the Port Authority, is never ever brought up in "9/11 Truth" discussions because of his Jesuit affiliations. Its the same reason why the fact that the "9/11 Truth" movement doesn't mention that the director of the CIA during the 9/11 "attacks" was Jesuit trained at Georgetown--George Tenet. The Deputy director of the CIA was none other than Jesuit trained at Fordham--John "Drone Strike" Brennan. The PATRIOT ACT---which legally turned America and the whole western world into a Police State---was drafted BEFORE 9/11--and it was drafted by Jesuit Georgetown professor, devout Catholic, Viet Dinh! The Jesuits would not have been able to pass the Patriot Act without the 9/11 "attacks" as a pretense. Now there is the "Austin J. Tobin plaza" at the new World Trade Center site--of course the Jesuits would honor one of there loyal conspirators.
The Austin J. Tobin plaza somehow remained unscathed by the collapse of building 1 and 2 of the old-world-trade center. Here is the

"Austin J. Tobin, Executive Director Of Port Authority for 30 Years, Dies
By
Frank J. Prial, 9 February 1978
February 9, 1978, Page 2. The New York Times Archives
Austin J. Tobin, the autocratic Brooklyn‐born lawyer who built the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey into the most powerful agency of its kind in the world, died of cancer yesterday at his Manhattan apartment. He was 74 years old.
When Mr. Tobin joined the agency as a law clerk it had 300 employees.
When he retired as executive director in 1972, the agency had 8,000 employees and an investment of $2.6‐billion in bridges, airports, ship terminals and other facilities, including the vast World Trade Center. At the time of his retirement he was reputed to be the highest‐paid public official in the United States except for the President. His salary was $70,000 a year.
Mr. Tobin saw the agency’s image change from one of benevolent servant of the area’s millions to that of a
conservative, money‐oriented, banker-dominated organization bent on defending its profit‐making activities in the face of public demands that it take on such tasks as improving mass transportation. When Mr. Tobin left the authority at the age of 68,
“to allow for the orderly transfer of executive responsibility to other hands,” he was himself the central target of most of the criticism directed at the agency.
At the time, critics of the authority were demanding that its considerable financial surpluses be channeled into mass transit, particularly the region’s ailing commuter railroads.
The agency was seen as the creator of many of the region’s transportation problems because it catered, with its tunnels and bridges, to automobiles. Mr. Tobin’s refusal to involve the authority in rail projects was taken as evidence that the authority’s primary concern was for its investors,
mostly the big Wall Street banks. Mr. Tobin maintained that he did not care what he operated so long as it made money. The Port Authority, he always insisted, had to make money, or it would die.
Unlike other port authorities in this country and elsewhere in the world, Mr. Tobin insisted, the Port Authority had no power to tax and no access to public funds. Its single lifeline was public credit, and unless it dealt only with what he called
“self‐supporting” projects, its ability to borrow would disappear.
In the years after Mr. Tobin’s retirement, that is almost what happened. When the Legislatures of New York and New Jersey passed bills that would have permitted the Port Authority to be used for deficit rail projects, the sale of its bonds fell off drastically. The laws later were declared unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court, and Port Authority bonds have since regained most of their old prestige.
Recent years have seen much of the enthusiasm for commuter rail projects disappear in the face of raging inflation, and many of Mr. Tobin’s predictions that such projects were a
“bottomless pit” for either public or private funds have come true.
Whatever Mr. Tobin’s critics said of his policies, few disputed the official’s single‐minded dedication to his job. Mr. Tobin considered it routine to work 12 to 18 hours a day and he expected many of his subordinates to follow a similarly rigorous schedule.
Reserved in manner and dress, the stocky, silver‐haired executive—whose face bore some resemblance to Mickey Walker, the old “Toy Bulldog” of the fight ring—was a devotee of classical music and an ardent bird watcher at his second home in Quogue, L. I. But when he went to Quogue, he usually toted a bulging briefcase with him.
Austin Joseph Tobin was born on May 25, 1903, the son of Clarence J. and Katherine Moran Tobin. His paternal grandfather, an immigrant from Tipperary, worked on the Brooklyn docks and died at the age of 30.
Clarence Tobin learned shorthand and served as secretary to John H. McCooey, a county leader, when Mr. McCooey was president of the Municipal Civil Service Commission in 1901. Later he became court reporter in Brooklyn.
The family moved to Flatbush,
where Austin attended St. Francis of Assisi parochial school and St. John’s Preparatory School. After graduating from Holy Cross College(Jesuit) in 1925, he graduated Fordham Law School(Jesuit) and almost immediately joined the fledgling Port Authority as law clerk. From 1930 to 1935 he was the agency’s real‐estate lawyer, and in 1937 he was named assistant general counsel. In 1942 he became executive director, succeeding John E. Ramsey, the first man to hold that post.
Under Mr. Tobin’s guidance, the agency completed the second and third tubes of the Lincoln Tunnel, added a second level to the George Washington Bridge, undertook the financing and development of the four major airports of the metropolitan district—Kennedy International, Newark International, La Guardia and Teterboro, a general aviation airport—and built the city’s first commercial heliports, at 30th Street and the Hudson River and at Wall Street on the East River.
The agency also constructed and operated the Port Authority Bus Terminal at Eighth Avenue and 41st Street, the largest in the world, and developed the harbor’s waterfront.
Starting with the Brooklyn piers, the Port Authority reconstructed docks in Hoboken, remade Port Newark and Port Elizabeth into modern containership centers and, most recently, designed and built the new passenger ship terminal on the West Side of Manhattan.
Also under Mr. Tobin, the Port Authority embarked on two of its most controversial projects, acquisition and rehabilitation of the former Hudson and Manhattan Railroad, now known as PATH, an acronym for Port Authority Trans Hudson,
and the 110‐story, twin towers of the World Trade Center. Actually, the two were closely allied.
New Jersey, which had long felt slighted by the agency, agreed to permit construction of the Trade Center only if the Port Authority took over the decrepit Hudson and Manhattan. Both New York’s and New Jersey’s Governors have the power to veto the authority’s minutes and thus prevent its carrying out plans.
In agreeing to take on the Hudson and Manhattan, the agency got both states to agree that it would never again have to involve itself in a deficit commuter rail project.
It was this pact that so enraged critics of the agency and of Mr. Tobin almost a decade later when the region’s financial difficulties led political and civic leaders to look at the Port Authority’s full coffers with considerable envy.
The World Trade Center has been mired in controversy since it was first proposed in the early 1960’s. It’s enemies have blamed it for most of the real‐estate problems of lower Manhattan in recent years and charged that it has never been a success.
It would have been a disaster, they contend, if the State of New York had not come to its aid by renting most of the space in one of the two towers.
Mr. Tobin’s critics saw the two huge towers, at their completion the tallest in the world, as a manifestation of his ego and of his conception of the Port Authority as larger and more important than almost anything in the region. Mr. Tobin never even attended the dedication ceremonies of the World Trade Center on April 5, 1973, a year after his retirement. He said at the time that he had decided not to go because it was raining.
Mr. Tobin leaves his wife, Rosaleen C. Skehan, formerly a lawyer for the Port Authority; a son, Austin C. Tobin Jr., an investment hanker; a daughter, Mrs. Martin Carmichael Jr., and seven grandchildren.
His first wife, Geraldine Farley Tobin, the mother of his children, died in 1966.
A funeral mass will be said at 10 A.M. Saturday at St. Vincent Ferrer Church in Manhattan."
Jesuit trained Austin J. Tobin is mentioned quite a bit in the book
Empire On The Hudson : Entrepreneurial Vision And Political Power At The Port Of New York Authority, Jameson W. Doig (2001) :
https://archive.org/details/thecolumbiahistoryofurbanlifejamesonw.doigempireonthehudsonentrepreneurialvision
pg 18 : " Austin J. Tobin was born in Brooklyn in 1903, son of an active member of the McCooey Democratic machine.
He attended Catholic schools in Brooklyn, graduated from Holy Cross College(Jesuit) in 1925 as salutatorian, and joined the Port Authority in 1927, while taking classes at Fordham law school(Jesuit) at night. Tobin served as real estate attorney and as an assistant general counsel at the agency, 1928–1942. From his third-tier position at the Port Authority, he organized a national campaign to block President Roosevelt’s plan to tax municipal bonds. Tobin was appointed executive director of the Authority in 1942. For the next three years, he confronted opposition from influential members of the Port Authority board. Tobin consolidated his power in 1945 and led the Port Authority until he departed at the end of 1971."
pg 202 : " Joined by another young lawyer, William Pallmé, and a legal assistant,Paul Reilly,
Tobin carried out more than 80 negotiated purchases and condemnations in 1930–31, displaying the same drive and commitment to success that his classmates had seen at Holy Cross(Jesuit)." pg 194/197 : "A Son of Brooklyn and the Church
"
In these artificial days, there are only a few compelling people who become so sincerely bound up in every task to which they are assigned, that they positively fill the atmosphere with their determination. Austin is of that rare and valued type. . . ." —
Holy Cross College yearbook, 1925 Politics and the docks of New York harbor were part of the heritage of the Tobin family, which in the late nineteenth century made its home near Prospect Park in Brooklyn. Austin’s grandfather, who had emigrated from Ireland, worked at the Brooklyn docks while the great bridge was under construction. Killed in a dock accident at the age of 30, he left a son, Clarence, and a daughter. To help support the family, young Clarence became a messenger boy, but he soon caught the eye of a member of the Brooklyn Democratic organization, who urged him to “go to school; become a stenographer.” And so he did; and through his political connections Clarence gained appointment, beginning in 1901, as stenographer to local public officials. In 1907 he was named to the staff of the state trial court in Brooklyn, where he served as court stenographer for 42 years, until his retirement in 1949. In 1902 Clarence married Katharine Moran, whose family was in the funeral business in Brooklyn, and they had four sons. Austin Joseph was the first. Born on May 25, 1903,
Austin received an education that was in a formal sense thoroughly Catholic but, when mixed with Tobin’s personal chemistry, was also thoroughly emancipating. Austin attended the parochial school of St. Francis of Assisi Roman Catholic Church, and he then entered
St. John’s Catholic preparatory school, graduating in 1921. His next four years were spent at Holy Cross College(Jesuit) in Worcester, Massachusetts, from which he graduated near the top of his class in 1925. Later that year he began the study of law at Fordham(Jesuit). Holy Cross was, a college classmate of Tobin’s recalls, a
“very rigid Catholic school.” Austin liked parties and he was not averse to a little drinking and gambling; so he sometimes broke college rules, and he accumulated a large number of demerits in his four years at school. At times, he seemed to relish the challenge of breaking the rules, as he worked out complex strategies to defeat the college’s efforts to monitor student behavior. But his challenge to authority was more intellectual than social. Tobin loved reading, and he was a highly rational being (“
as his Jesuit teachers had taught him to be,” one friend commented)................
At St. John’s Prep, he won awards for oratory, and sixty years later, high school companions could still recall the subjects on which he spoke. At college he walked with friends on the campus hills, reciting Virgil and Horace, and debating with them the great and small issues of the day.
And he could write; this talent too was encouraged by Holy Cross, where Austin penned essays and poems for the literary magazine. Like the poet Hart Crane, Tobin was touched by the romance of the harbor and the sometimes destructive intensity of the growing cities. Tobin’s most distinctive qualities during these years were great personal energy, organizing talent, and commitment to a cause, combined with a playful, risk-taking approach to life. The first three of these attributes are illustrated by his fervent support of the football team and other athletic endeavors, and by his leading efforts in organizing college dances in the New York area. These dimensions are also captured in his yearbook entry, whose opening lines are quoted in the headnote to this section. The yearbook comment continues:
“No half-way measures for him; do it well, or don’t do it at all—with a vengeance. In fact, we would be inclined to smile at his earnestness, if he had not a wealth of genuine talent to justify his actions.” These sentences capture not only the Tobin of four years at Holy Cross but important elements of his next four decades as well. The playful and risk-taking aspects of Tobin’s character were also on display in much of his college life.
Both elements are seen in the stratagems he devised to outwit the watchful Jesuit monitors, and in his enthusiastic response to gambling opportunities. However, the playful side of his personality was most clearly displayed in his half-time activities during football games and in related capers. For one football game during his senior year, he organized and produced a half-time show which parodied British royalty (Austin assigned himself the role of “Lady Mountbatten or Lady Somebody.”)
For the Fordham game, he organized a burlesque Spanish dance, and for the St. John’s game, he and other upperclassman planned a half-time entertainment in which “fifty innocent freshmen” were introduced onto the field and asked to capture two well greased pigs. During November of his senior year, Tobin wrote “insane snatches of verse” for the New Jersey Club dance; and he and a compatriot put on a skit for the Freshman Reception. After graduation in 1925, Austin returned to Brooklyn and married Geraldine T. Farley, who had graduated from Adelphi College the same year.
That fall he enrolled at Fordham Law School, attending classes in the evening while working as a clerk at Miller & Otis, a New York law firm, and casting about for what he should do next. His father was active in Brooklyn politics, but Austin had no interest in that field. He visited the local Democratic club with his father once or twice, but he felt uncomfortable in the society of party members who kept their hats on indoors and chewed cigars, while they exchanged news about local political issues and devised strategies for the next campaign. Although Tobin was reluctant to throw his energies into local politics, his view of government was highly positive.
Like his father, Austin held Woodrow Wilson in high regard, and this favorable view had been reinforced by a brief meeting with the president at the White House. In the tradition of Wilson, Theodore Roosevelt, and young Robert Moses, Austin viewed government as an appropriate instrument in meeting broad social goals, he favored a strong civil service along British lines, and he was optimistic that American society, effectively led, could meet the challenges ahead. One of the newest experiments in active government was the Port of New York Authority.
Tobin had heard about the “port authority idea” in 1919–20, when Governor Alfred E. Smith(Papal Chamberlain) campaigned across the region for the creation of the bi-state agency. As Tobin later recalled:
“My father . . . took me to hear Al Smith make the closing speech of one of his campaigns in the [Brooklyn] Academy of Music, and it was there that I first heard about the idea and concept of the Port Authority.” In 1925–26 the Authority was still negotiating with the railroads, but it had just received approval to construct three bridges between New Jersey and Staten Island, as well as the vast span across the Hudson River. Ground-breaking ceremonies for the first of these projects took place in September 1926 with much publicity, and the future of this fledgling bi-state enterprise looked promising. Moreover its General Counsel, Julius Henry Cohen, had a national reputation for his innovative approach to important legal and substantive problems. Here was a natural place for an aspiring lawyer interested in the New York region and in complex legal issues. In 1926, a friend of Tobin at Miller & Otis, John Stuart Dudley, was hired by the Port Authority as a real estate attorney, and he soon urged his compatriot to join him. Austin applied for a position, and Cohen liked what he saw. A demand that the position be used to meet patronage needs postponed a decision temporarily, but Cohen resisted that foray. On February 14, 1927, Tobin joined the Port Authority’s small staff as a law clerk.
A year later he had his Fordham law degree and was promoted to Assistant Attorney in Cohen’s office. "
pg 475 : "
"Three days away from H.C. and in Brooklyn and not a slip-up on either end,” Tobin wrote, after one forbidden absence during term;
“for the H.C. triumph over theJebs and their vigilant system I owe a good bit to the maneuvers of Joe and Al.” (A. J. Tobin, letter to G. T. Farley, May 9, 1924.) A year later, facing the mandatory senior retreat, which conflicted with his fiancee’s college graduation, he commented:
“If I haven’t amassed enough Jesuit strategy and counter-strategy in four years to out-wit the Jesuits themselves for one all-important evening—I neither deserve nor want my degree.” (Tobin letter to Farley, April 27, 1925.) His efforts to evade Jesuit strictures did not always work, however. His brother Bill recalled that their father was asked to visit the Prefect of Discipline at Holy Cross on one occasion, to hear the details of his son’s behavior while “entertaining” fellow students at a Greek restaurant near the campus; and he thought there were other similar fatherly visits."
