9/11 "up yours": World Trade Center II

[Lizzard[MPE]]

KET (Kentucky Education Television) just had a program about the rebuilding and the building of the memorial.

America Rebuilds II: Return to Ground Zero, airing Monday, Sept. 11 at 9/8 p.m. CT on KET2 and Tuesday, Sept. 12 at 9/8 p.m. on KET1, is the definitive record of the efforts to rebuild Ground Zero after the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center towers. This program is part of a planned trilogy documenting the rescue and recovery, rebuilding and reopening of the World Trade Center site.



There was a part that was a good point. The gentleman that won the bid for the memorial has it underground with all the names on the wall. Some citizens said that when people are down there they will be able to feel the rumble from the subway///!!!!

"In contrast with the public mandate of the underground interpretive center is the very private nature of the room for unidentified remains. It is situated at bedrock at the north tower footprint. Here a large stone vessel forms a centerpiece for the unidentified remains. A large opening in the ceiling connects this space to the sky above, and the sound of water shelters the space from the city. Family members can gather here for moments of private contemplation. It is a personal space for remembrance.

The memorial plaza is designed to be a mediating space; it belongs both to the city and to the memorial. Located at street level to allow for its integration into the fabric of the city, the plaza encourages the use of this space by New Yorkers on a daily basis. The memorial grounds will not be isolated from the rest of the city; they will be a living part of it. "
