[αmεlισcrαcγ] in memoriam.

[Nicole Woon]

Reflecting Absence by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker "strives to make visible what is absent. The primary responsibility we have is to those we lost that day."

The names of the nearly 3,000 individuals who were killed in the September 11 attacks in New York City, Pennsylvania, and at the Pentagon, and the February 1993 World Trade Center bombing are inscribed around the edges of the Memorial pools.

One World Trade Center, one of the new buildings on the plaza, will soar a symbolic 1,776 feet skyward when finished to become America's tallest building.

World Trade Center; New York, NY.
