The photos brought me into 9/11 & the recovery, making the "surreal" real. Something I believe everyone should experience. We had the honor of having the photographer/ artist as our tour guide. He has incredible talent & a heart to match! He knew & shared the story behind every photo. |

At first glance, the room of this museum workshop didn't look like much, but little did we know all of the photos, treasures and artifacts that would be revealed to us in the next 2-1/2 hours. It's obvious Gary Suson put his heart and soul into this project, and we are thankful for the opportunity to meet him and to see his work. |

This was a very emotional experience. The small scale and the personal interaction of the museum serves the viewer very well. It is as close to being "there" as I would ever want to be. |

The Ground Zero Museum was my favorite activity of the whole vacation. What an amazing piece of work put together by Gary Suson! Listening to the descriptions of each picture, and seeing the efforts put into the recovery of Ground Zero was unbelievable. The museum is just 1 small room, but is FULL of loss, sorrow, hope, happiness, and memories that will make you NEVER FORGET! I highly recommend visiting this museum. |

This museum is a must see for anyone in N.Y. It will bring the humaness of the tragedy of 9/11 to you in a very real way. Mr. Susson did a fabulous job in his photography and stories. Don't be fooled by the size of the museum, there's so much there you will be there the full time. I highly recommend taking this tour! |

I am an Australian firefighter touring the States in Sep 2007. I came across the museum while researching Ground Zero on the internet. It was one of the highlights of my trip.
I would recommend a visit to all. It is displayed in a very tasteful manner and in a very relaxed environment, plenty of time to take it all in. So many interesting pieces and the fact that most of them can be handled added to the visit . It is difficult to put my experience into words. All i can say is if you are considering a visit DO IT !!
You won't get to see this display anywhere else in the world. |

My husband and I really enjoyed the Ground Zero Museum Workshop tour. This is a must do. While the size may fool you, there is so much to see and learn! The pictures and artifacts are amazing! This is something that you must do when you go to NYC. |

It was nothing like we expected. The "smallness" of the environment only made the overall experience more touching, meaningful, and real. The guide was informative and honest. Although touching some of the reminants just didn't seem right to me, being in such close proximity to everything was surreal, amazing. I would recommend this to anyone visiting NY. |

Was not senstionalized, yet very sensitive & thought provoking. Helped realize what the recovery workers went through--although you could never realize the full intensity unless you were actually there.
Thought the project was done with a great deal of dignity & respect for all involved. |
