9/11 Memorial Year End Update 2010 : Page 5MOMENTUM BUILDS ON MEMORIAL CONSTRUCTION Historic “Tridents” Installed within the Museum The pair of seven-story steel remnants from the original façade of the North Tower were returned to the site and installed in the atrium of the 9/11 Memorial Museum. The historic “tridents” once formed the distinctive Gothic arch motif at the base of the Twin Towers. The forked columns are so large that the Museum Pavilion’s structure are being built around them. The “tridents” stand approximately 70 feet tall at the site of the Museum Pavilion. Photo by Joe Woolhead. NATIONAL SEPTEMBER 11 MEMORIAL & MUSEUM 2010 YEAR END UPDATE 5 Publication List |
