three weeks ago I had a dr. appt. in CHinatown and since I finished early I decided to take my daughter to 9/11 Memorial.
To be honest this is my third time visiting that place. The first was when I came to USA in 2007. Back then there was a still a huge hole in the ground where the twin towers stood. I remember taking some pictures but I don't think I have them anymore. The second time was when I was pregnant -2009. I was showing my friend around and he wanted to go there. There still was no change since 2007.
Now, few years later we have beautiful memorial for the victims of this awful terrorist attack.
9/11 Memorial is located at World Trade Center site, former location of Twin Towers that were destroyed in September 11th attack.
There are two square pools in the center of where the twin towers stood. They are surrounded by the tree forest. The names of 2,983 victims were inscribed on 76 bronze plates attached to parapets of the walls of each pool.
One World Trade Center, also known as a Freedom Tower is the main building of rebuild World Trade Center complex in lower Manhattan. It is the tallest building in NYC and sixth tallest building in the world.
Here is few pictures form the visit. It was really cloudy that day unfortunately . I will try to go there again when its more sunny :) I also took few short videos . If you want to see them check my page on FB (click here) .

Świetny i nietypowy pomysł na upamiętnienie ofiar, podoba mi się nowoczesna stylistka w której pomnik został wykonany. Piękne zdjęcia *-*
