World Trade Center 9/11 Memorial
For the WTC 9/11 Memorial Competition, Louis Nelson Design submitted a design based on the collective concepts of Mists of September and Rainbows of Healing, the Garden of 96 Countries, Steps of Remembrance, a Crystal Wall of Heroes and a Final Resting Place.
These collective concepts recognize the victims of the attacks; create areas for quiet visitation and contemplation for families and the public; create final resting space for unidentified remains; and make visible the footprints of the original WTC towers.
