9/11 Memorial

lThe Watchung 9/11 Memorial is designed to create a meaningful place where the plaque, with the piece of steel from the WorldTrade Center, will be on display.

The structure's coloring and form are engineered to embrace the park's natural beauty,with a stacked stone look reminiscent of the old Wetumpka Falls. The concrete and stone structure will be augmented with granite that was once part of the base of the Statue of Liberty. Visitors will enter the surrounding walls where the plaque is mounted on a slanted stone pedestal. The piece of steel from the World TradeCenter is embedded in a pink heart-shaped block, inside a white marble rectangular block. The direct interaction of placing one's hand on the heart is suggested by the design. The height will be assessable for both young people and adults.
Funded by your donations.
Dedicated to all who perished as a result of the attacks of September 11,2011
