The World Trade Centre.
This memorial proposes a space that resonates with the feelings of
loss and absence that were generated by the destruction of the World
Trade Center and the taking of thousands of lives on September 11, 2001
and February 26, 1993. It is located in a field of trees that is
interrupted by two large voids containing recessed pools. The pools and
the ramps that surround them encompass the footprints of the twin
towers. A cascade of water that describes the perimeter of each square
feeds the pools with a continuous stream. They are large voids, open
and visible reminders of the absence. http://www.wtcsitememorial.org/fin7.html
