Remember New York

The list places to see and learn about in New York seems to be endless. For hundreds of years people have come to live or visit this amazing metropolis because of the intensity of human life the city has going on all the time. This is were all the latest in many things come from. Human passion and creativity are on super high in New York. Some of the best hotels in New York City are here located in some of the most historical buildings in the world. They are surrounded by generations of skyscrapers that make the skyline of this city so famous.

On September 11 2001, the skyline had a dramatic change and now people come from all over the world to see what happened on that terrifyingly tragic day. There are hundreds of kinds of tours of the city and the water around it but one of the most important and popular tours is that of ground zero. They have had over eight years of stories being told and photos collected to put in a collection at the Ground Zero Museum Workshop. Many people watched for hours and days the footage of airplanes flying into the World Trade Center buildings with complete shock and heartbreak. Most of the world felt the sadness and came together as one during this time. There were many people lost in this devastation and many of them were working for foreign companies from all over the world so it was not just an attack on America it was an attack on the world.

The Ground Zero Museum Workshop has some genuine support from all sorts of people including some of the family of the fallen. There are so many pictures taken by talented photograghers like Gary Suson,  who hid behind his camera to capture the story that was felt so painfully in his own heart. There were a lot of brave people putting themselves in hard situations to make sure that the people who died that day would be remembered and honored.
