The 9/11 Memorial

I was in NYC last week for week and I decided to check out the 9/11 Memorial. Reservations were required but entry was free. Two square pool/fountains sit atop the location of the former two towers. The fountains were much bigger than I expected.



They are lined with the names of those that lost their lives during the 9/11 attacks.


The Memorial is surrounded by construction as new buildings are erected in the area.





This was in the visitor center. My brother-in-law is a firefighter so it really touched me.


A visit to the Memorial is a must-see for anyone visiting NYC.
