First Look at Underground 9/11 Memorial Hall Renderings



Wednesday, June 10, 2009, by Joey

One part of the tangled World Trade Center mess that appears to be on track is the National September 11 Memorial & Museum. The slightly downsized design celebrated a milestone in April, when over half of its structural steel was installed. Now, David Dunlap reports on City Room that museum officials are reaching out to victims' families to spellcheck names and contribute mementos. They've also prepped some preliminary renderings of the memorial exhibition hall, deep underground the south pool that commemorates where one of the Twin Towers once stood. Examples and details in the gallery above.


There will be three-minute audio/visual presentations on individual victims.


A 12-foot-hight frieze will show the portraits of 2,982 victims,
which includes those who died in the 1993 and 2001 attacks on the WTC,
the 9/11 Pentagon attack and all passengers on the four hijacked 9/11 planes.


Touchscreen displays will allow visitors to scroll through victims' profiles.
