Remembering 9/11

Description

This is a picture of a sculpture in NYC. It now stands as a memorial of the events of September 11, 2001. Since tomorrow is the 11-year anniversary, i feel that it is appropriate that I upload it. An eternal flame (not pictured) burns in front of this memorial, and there is a plaque that reads:

""For three decades, this sculpture stood in the plaza of the World Trade Center. Entitled "The Sphere", it was conceived by artist Fritz Koenig as a symbol of world peace. It was damaged bye the tragic events of September 11, 2001, but endures as an icon of hope and the indestructible spirit of this country. The sphere was placed here (near Liberty island) on March 11, 2002 as a temporary memorial to all who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center.

This eternal flame (not pictured here) was ignited on September 11, 2002 in honor of all those who were lost. Their spirit and sacrifice will never be forgotten. ""

Lest we forget the tragedy of that day <3
