In remembrance of the events that took place in New York City on September 11, 2001, take this guided, 5-star rated kid-friendly 1.5-hour tour of the Ground Zero Museum Workshop in the Meatpacking District. See and touch 100 images and artifacts from the nine month 9/11 dig for the missing and experience the heroic efforts of the New York Fire Department. Listen to audio stories in French, Italian, English and Spanish with BOSE surround sound headphones and real Ground Zero sound effects. Images by the Official Photographer at Ground Zero
The Ground Zero Museum Workshop in the Meat-Packing District on West 14th Street features stunning images, rare video and remnants from the Ground Zero Recovery Period, all packed into an intimate and emotional space. On display are 100 of Gary Marlon Suson’s most well-known images, including the charred Genesis 11: Tower of Babylon Bible Page found in the WTC rubble, the Frozen Clock stuck at 10:02am, marking the collapse of the South Tower and several FDNY Honor Guard images. The actual clock itself is also on display in the museum.
The only all-access, sanctioned photographer at Ground Zero, Suson’s one-of-a-kind, 3-D photo installations place viewers into the “hole” at Ground Zero. Visitors are also allowed the rare opportunity to pick up and hold World Trade Center steel and window glass. Tours are limited to just 25 people, and include a powerful 15-minute video.
The Ground Zero Museum is about 5-minutes from Ground Zero via the “E” train. Daily tours last about 90 minutes and include the intimate stories behind 100 images and remnants. This is a “don’t-miss” museum that touches the heart of young and old alike. No graphic or morbid images are displayed and the museum is known for its sensitivity to a very tough subject matter. Suitable for children.
