A September 11 Survivor's World Trade Center Walking Tour

I'm a 9/11 survivor, a member of the 9/11 Victims Compensation Fund. You will have my own experience of that day and the weeks afterward. After the attacks, I volunteered at what was then known as Ground Zero. I organized guides to give free walking tours to visiting first responders during the aftermath. After all, this is a deeply historic area of 400-year-old New York City. Colonial, Revolutionary War and early American historic spots are all around here. The tour begins in a church attended by George Washington.You will see:The Memorial Pools in the exact location of the Twin TowersThe Eleven Tears Memorial at American ExpressA memorial for survivors who have since died of 9/11 syndromeA sculpture that honors still-living survivors You will be taken to places most guides don't know about: scenes where you can still see lingering damage from September 11 that has never been removed. It's still in plain sight, if you know where to look. Allow me to show you.
