Very powerful stuff.

Eerie. Certainly looks like a place to visit on your next trip to NYC.

This museum will help make sure that we who lived through the savage attack and its anguished aftermath of workers digging in Ground Zero, missing-people posters, bagpipes wailing across the five boroughs, the funeral church bells and the security panic will always hold the 2,753 who died in the World Trade Center close at heart.
For the next generation and those that follow, this will be a museum and memorial that will last forever like the blood-soaked field in Gettysburg.
People will come and walk past the five-story rusted steel tridents that rise from the sunken lobby and up, up, up through the gleaming atrium — like two triumphant upraised arms with big balled fists from a champion who has gotten off the canvas and fought back to victory.
Victory over the jihadist monsters who sent those insignificant hijackers on a mission to knock the towers down.

Can't wait for it to open and more pictures to get released so I can get a better look at everything.

Seems like a real bummer of a museum.

Wow. I will definitely make this a priority for the next time I go to NYC. Thanks for posting.

Wow. That's incredible. Definitely added to my bucket list.

So is the Holocaust museum but it is still a must see exhibit to be able to understand the atrocities first hand.
9/11 was a scary day.
I thought WW3 had started.

9/11 jokes are just plane wrong.

But I just keep falling for them.
Get it? Get it? Like falling from the WTC?

I would go back to see the museum, but I have no interest in returning to the memorial. It's just too incredibly sad.
I went and saw it for the first time last year just as me and my wife were just starting to try for our first child and one of the first names I read was a lady's name and had "and her unborn child" right after it. Broke me down pretty bad.

I don't know if I could tour that.

They had a first look tour on the CBS national news yesterday. There's an exhibit that is just a room with the pictures of the people from Flight 93. In that room you can listen to the final cell phone calls from some of the passengers to their loved ones. I'm not emotionally equipped for something like that.

I'll be in NY till Wednesday night so I'll try and go, but the line will most likely be ludicrous.

The Holocaust Museum in Washington DC is hands down the most amazing and powerful museum I've ever been to. I'm excited that they picked the same lady to do the 9/11 one.
