The City of Hoboken has finalized the conceptual design for the September 11th Memorial. Engineering drawings and estimates are being completed, and the City will go out to bid for construction once all necessary funds have been secured.
The future September 11th Memorial will be placed here within this memorial grove of trees and oriented toward the World Trade Center site. The main feature of the memorial will be glass panels—one representing each of the victims from Hoboken who perished in the September 11th attack on the World Trade Center. The edge of each glass panel will bear the name of one of the victims. There are two symmetrical semicircular platforms that will each hold half of the glass panels. The two platforms with the panels are considered representative of the twin towers. Lighting will be utilized to highlight the glass panels. Visitors will have a place to sit and place mementos and flowers. Quotes from those who were there that fateful day will be etched around the outside edge of the concrete platform on which the glass panels rest. The inside edge of the platform will be inscribed with words that describe the relationship of the victims, such as Mother * Father * Sister * Brother * Child * Partner * Wife * Husband. We will never forget.
