LOOK AT THE THIRD LINK FIRST
After years of construction work the site has been transformed to honor the victims of the 2001 attacks. This panorama image is comprised of over 60 images, taken on August 30,  that were stitched together with software. To navigate use the tools at the lower left of the image to pan and zoom.(9/11/11)

The names displayed at the memorial are grouped by attack at The National September 11 Memorial in New York.
By John Makely / NBC News - As night falls, the National September 11 Memorial takes on a whole different feeling. Crowds become sparse, construction ceases and the traffic of lower Manhattan seems to fade away. You are left with the sounds of cascading water and the rustling of trees.  There is no better place to reflect on what happened on September 11, 2001, and the lives that were lost.

The tridents, two relics of the destroyed towers, are seen through the glass enclosure that will be the entrance to the National September 11 Museum once it opens.
