9/11 Memorial

My Wall St tour ended at the World Trade Center site which gave me the perfect opportunity to visit the 9/11 Tribute Center and the 9/11 Memorial & Museum. The 9/11 Tribute Center was founded by the families and survivors of 9/11 while the Memorial & Museum is the official site and includes the reflecting pools located where the twin towers once stood. An incredibly moving place – from the missing posters displayed in the Tribute Center, the white roses placed against individual names around the edge of the reflecting pools and the detailed biographies provided for each victim. The museum itself is very well designed and while working through the exhibits it genuinely took me back to that night watching it unfold on the TV. Incredibly sad but highly recommended.
