World Trade Center Memorial
New York City , New York

The September 11th attack on the World Trade Center towers was not simply an attack against a physical structure; it was a symbolic assault on a way of life – against the American Dream itself. People were lost The people who lost their lives in the towers on September 11, 2001 were not making a conscious decision to sacrifice themselves. They were killed, rather, for practicing commerce and finance, for conducting international business, for networking with the world, and for living their day-to-day life by American values.
