Itinerary
Day 1 - 9/11 Museum
Today, we make our way to New York City. We will arrive in lower Manhattan and have some time at Brookfield Place (for lunch on your own) which is just across the street from the One World Observatory. This was previously the World Financial Center and was built between 1983 to 1988.
After, we make our way over to the The National September 11 Memorial Museum serves as the country’s principal institution concerned with exploring the implications of the events of 9/11, documenting the impact of those events, and exploring 9/11’s continuing significance. The Museum displays artifacts associated with the events of 9/11 and presents stories of loss and recovery.
The 9/11 Memorial’s twin reflecting pools are nearly an acre in size, feature the largest manmade waterfalls in North America, and sit within the footprints of where the Twin Towers once stood. The name of every person who died in the 2001 and 1993 attacks are inscribed on bronze panels around the edges of the Memorial pools. This serves as a reminder of the largest loss of life resulting from foreign attacks on American soil.
