The National September 11 Memorial

The National September 11 Memorial, located at the World Trade Center site in New York City, honors the nearly 3,000 victims of the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the 1993 bombing. It features two large reflecting pools set in the footprints of the original Twin Towers, surrounded by a grove of oak trees. Each pool has the names of the victims inscribed around its edges, creating a space for remembrance and reflection. The memorial serves as a tribute to those lost and a reminder of the resilience of the human spirit in the face of tragedy.
