A police officer who ran to the World Trade Center from NYPD headquarters after al Qaeda terrorists flew two hijacked planes into the Twin Towers on Sept. 11 was honored at a street renaming Saturday — 25 years after he died in the buildings’ collapse while in the process of retiring to practice law. Police Officer John Perry, who was posthumously awarded the NYPD’s Medal of Honor in 2001, now has his name on a street sign at East 101st Street and Madison Avenue on the Upper East Side.
