National September 11 Memorial and Museum - Memorial/Landscape

The National September 11 Memorial & Museum are located at the World Trade Center site - built as a national tribute to the 3000 lives lost in the 2001 attack. Two majestic waterfall chasms designed by Peter Walker Partners mark the footprint of the former two towers as well as its destruction. The austere museum with its cavernous space by Michael Arad is located underground, intended as an educational supplement to the memorial.
