National September 11 Memorial & Museum
National September 11 Memorial & Museum, Memorial and museum in Financial District, United States.
The National September 11 Memorial features two square reflecting pools measuring 54 meters by 54 meters at the exact locations of the former Twin Towers.
The Memorial opened on September 12, 2011, followed by the Museum on May 21, 2014, marking the transformation of Ground Zero into a commemorative space.
Bronze panels surrounding the pools display the names of 2,983 people who lost their lives in the 2001 and 1993 attacks at the World Trade Center.
