Option: B

Explanation:

Mario Cuomo represented as the 52nd Governor of New York, from 1983 to 1994. A terrorist bomb detonated in the World Trade Center's parking garage in New York City on 26 February 1993, generating a depression of 60 feet deep and triggering the destruction of several steel-reinforced concrete levels in the area of the explosion. There were six people killed and more than 1,000 wounded. The World Trade Center itself sustained damage worth more than $500 million.
