| This exhibit speaks volumes that mere words could never capture. It is sensitively respectful, yet appropriately informative of the horrors experienced on 9/11. We had never been to NY, and truly had no idea of the scope this tragedy encompassed. Suson's photography was haunting, and he personally offered touching stories behind each and every photo and artifact. We feel truly honored to have experienced this exhibit. |

| We arrived early and found 4 other couples also waiting with Sean our host. Turns out Gary, the photographer, was also there that day and we had the priviledge to get to hear his first hand account of being the only photographer allowed at Ground Zero.
We took our time and used the headsets to get info on every picture and display. It was worth every minute of our 3.5 hour visit and we were never hurried out and welcomed to stay as long as we liked.
It is something I will never forget and this is a must see if you have not yet. It is a very different perspective you will not get anywhere else. Do this before visiting Ground Zero area, it makes things much more meaningful!!
Don't rush out, take your time and really soak up the magnitude of that horrible day and also be delighted in the things God uses for good. Whatever you take from it, you won't be the same after the visit here. |

| An inspirational journey into the lives of those who were involved with the tragedy that is September 11, 2001. This activity is an experience for the senses. There is not enough time to fully comprehend the great depths this activity leads to. Overall this workshop is truly touching to the heart, mind and soul. This tour is highly recommended because of the unique nature with which it is presented and organized. Photographs truly are worth a thousand words, and the images in this workshop are just that and more. Together with the marvelous photography and the artifacts, the experience rings home. A truly touching endeavor, one you will not soon forget. |

| We appreciated the opportunity to learn more about the recovery process. Gary's pictures are powerful, tastefully displayed and instrumental in capturing emotions of the tragedy. The museum was the most comprehensive history of what happened that we could find. This is a great vehicle to help the families of those that lost their lives heal. Thanks for your efforts Gary. |

| The museum is a great place to pay your respects to the departed. You will learn a lot about Ground Zero, the heroism that took place on 911 and afterwards. The stories the pictures tell will take your breath away. It is very emotional. I greatly appreciated having the opportunity to finally pay my respects to all those that died none of which I knew, but their tragic death changed my life as it did for so many. |

A "Must See" when in New York City

| Absolutely the highlight for us during our recent trip to New York. We visited the museum with our 4 children (10-13). For those of us who remember Sept 11th, it was incredibly moving and thought provoking. For our two youngest children, they did not remember the events of that day so for them it was an education of sorts. Gary and his staff have created an extraordinary place that should be seen by all who visit the city. |

| When my Mom and I came to the outside of the museum, we weren't too sure what to think. It was unpretentious, and not what we expected. BUT BOY....when we got in there. We were captivated for every second. It should be a requirement for every American. Especially for those who weren't directly affected. I wanted to take my Mom here as a part of our day in NY (I live in NJ) because its seems like people who don't live near here have forgotten or really don't fully understand the impact of this event...and especially now, while we are at war. Its one thing to see the site now "just" a big hole in the ground. Its another to SEE what the people went through, and the rescuers especially. This museum is wonderfully and thoughtfully done. Thanks to Gary M. Suson. |

| My wife and I enjoyed the museum very much. Many pictures and artifacts from the WTC that we've never seen before. The video was excellent and informative. Almost brought me to tears a couple times.
We would recommend this tour to anyone interested in re-visiting the 9-11 attacks on the WTC.
Thanks for having us! |

| I visited NYC only three months after 9/11 and there were so many things and feelings to deal with. Six years later, it was a priority to me to visit the museum. Not knowing what to expect, Mr. Suson did a remarkable job putting together such a memorial. Words cannot describe the feelings I had.
WE WILL NEVER FORGET!!! |
