Sept. 11 Memorial
The facade remnants of the New York City twin towers are being removed and preserved for the later creation of a memorial for those who perished on Sept. 11 (Dec. 16). Although New York City understandably needs such a remembrance, it is suggested that the nation needs to share in the memorial as well. Why couldn’t fragments of the facade be cut into pieces for distribution to every state capital to demonstrate the scope of the national tragedy? Such a gesture by the people of New York City would give greater meaning to what happened to all Americans.
