1) Did you not see the big gash in the side from being hit by one of the main towers? You'll have to do some looking to find the images because of course the gash was facing the main towers and thus was mostly obscured by the smoke. Very lousy view, few cameras were pointed that way.
2) They did not fight the WTC 7 fire because the collapse of the main towers took out the water main. Note that it's not that skyscrapers can't be brought down by fire, but that in most cases the fire prevention buys the fire crews enough time to fight the fire.

Thanks!
The spire tore a hole through the side of the building and it was left burning for hours.
