  1. Patt Morrison Asks: Memorial man Peter Walker

    Berkeley landscape architect Peter Walker has designed bigger projects than the <a href="http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/news/la-et-9-11-memorial-pictures,0,1314551.photogallery">9/11 memorial in New York</a>, but probably none has carried more weight. The opening of the eight-acre plaza Sunday marks 10 years since the terrorist attacks, and almost as many years since Walker joined with architect Michael Arad to finalize a monument for ground zero. The design -- down to plaza lights like the model Walker is holding -- demanded as much attention to emotion as to aesthetics and engineering. With work on One World Trade Center and the museum still in progress, it is the memorial that will first meet the public eye and, if it succeeds, affix in the public heart the harrowing sorrow and transcendent memory of 9/11 for as long as such monuments endure.
