The 9/11 Tribute Center, the original museum about the terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, is moving to a new, bigger space on Greenwich Street.
Since 2005, four million people have visited the Tribute Center, meeting people whose lives were forever changed by the attacks. Guides at the 9/11 Tribute Center are survivors of the attacks, rescue and recovery workers, family members of those killed in the attacks and local residents, for whom terrorism came to their very homes.
Maria Alvarez spoke for Newsday to Tribute’s curator and to several steel workers who contributed to their collection of artifacts.
