Not to mention a lot of that debris was blasted out the windows by the immense air pressure created by the pancaking floors, as can be seen in videos of the collapse. Most of that dust was probably concrete, but it's likely some other material was present as well.

So if the thread-starter wants to know "where'd it all go", the answer is in part "all over Manhattan".
