Tour Highlights:


  • The September 11, 2001 terrorist attack that toppled the iconic Twin Towers and killed almost 3,000 civilians and first responders.

  • The 9/11 Memorial, Reflecting Absence, by architect Michael Arad and landscape architect Peter Walker. The 9/11 Memorial consists of two huge waterfalls placed in the footprints of the original Twin Towers. Each waterfall is surrounded by bronze panels that include the names of the almost 3,000 people who were killed on 9/11.

  • The upcoming 9/11 Museum that houses important 9/11 artifacts including the Steel Tridents, the Last Column, the Survivor's Staircase and the World Trade Center Cross. The 9/11 Museum, located below the 9/11 Memorial Plaza, will also offer in-depth profiles of all the victims of 9/11 and the 1993 World Trade Center bombing, and will provide historical accounts of the events of 9/11.

  • An introduction to One World Trade Center, now the tallest building in New York City, and the other new towers rising around the 9/11 Memorial. 1 World Trade Center (also called the Freedom Tower) will be completed by the beginning of 2014 and the observation deck will open in 2015.

  • The World Trade Center Transportation Hub, designed by Santiago Calatrava, will provide access to the PATH trains located below the 9/11 Memorial and will link with all subways that pass through Lower Manhattan.

  • The history, design and development of the original World Trade Center and its many innovative engineering features including the slurry wall, tube frame construction, kangaroo cranes and sky lobbies.
