Gravity's Rainbow

Found Poem on the Article:

Attack, World Trade Center, 9/11,memorial, Ground Zero, Flight 93, Twin Towers, about 2,983 died, Terrorist, Planes, Buildings, Firefighters, Police, Skyscrapers, "soaring" memorial to the people who died on 9/11, deep, dark voids express a sense of loss and grief, six who died in the truck bomb attack on the Twin Towers in 1993, : the Trade Center site as a whole is a lost opportunity, In all there are 2,983, including everyone (other than the terrorists) who died at the World Trade Center and the Pentagon and in the crash of United Airlines Flight 93 in Shanksville, Pa, The National 9/11 Memorial, to use its formal name, is the brainchild of an architect, Michael Arad, collaborating with the landscape designer Peter Walker, Over the past ten years there have been any number of disappointing developments at the Trade Center site

I think the memorial is a great idea to use in rememberance for all the lives lost due to 9/11. I think that the way the lanscaping is going to be is a nice way to make it. Although it would would have been even better if they could have followed through with the idea of ingraving the names of those lost into the wall behind the waterfall curtains. But the way they have the names now is fine though. I think it was a really excellent idea to put the names of the ones lost close to the people that were family or close friends. I also think it was great how they had the two memeorials organized and squared off, and they did great on the placing.
