| I came to New York for the first time to attend the 2008 Toy Fair. I looked around online to see what I could do to in the city to remember 9/11. I found this workshop online and it had great ratings. I decided to go ahead and attend and WOW was I amazed.
This workshop was amazing, tons of photos, actual items from the WTC towers and videos. Almost every picture had a number and you were able to listen to the self guided audio tour by pushing the corresponding number and hearing information from the photographer right through your personal headset.
Very moving event, and I would say this event was the best part of my 5 night stay in NY. |

| This exibit is well prepared and thoughtful, and really brings you close to the recovery effort at Ground Zero. There are moments of tears and laughter, but above all you come away with a great sense of the gravity of what occurred at the World Trade Center when almost 3,000 people lost their lives. It is a tribute to their memory, their families, and the dedicated men and women who worked day and night for months after the attacks to recover their fallen comrades as well as innocent civilians.
If you are in New York to learn more about 9/11, this should be your first stop. |

| This was definitely a must-see for anyone affected by the tragedy on September 11th. The photographer who took the famous pictures and artifacts was actually present on our tour. When you first walk in and see that the museum is in a small room you are surprised... but there is more information and moving PHYSICAL evidence of that day than many other large museums. AMAZING!!!! |

| My best friend and I decided we wanted to visit the musuem and it was probably the best choice we made our entire trip. Of course the musuem is emotionally because 911 is still so real for all of us, but it really was a very positive experience. I learned so much that I did not know and brought a lot of things to light. The photographer who put the musuem together did such an awesome job taking the pictures and collecting meaningful artifacts. What was even cooler is that Gary actually came into the musuem and we got to meet and talk with him. I would recommend this experience to anyone and it definately makes me even prouder to be an American. |

| This was an experience unlike any I have ever had before.... it was very emotional but touching at the same time. It reallly made me remember and think about what happened on that horrible day. The photographer was there the day I went for my tour and I met him, which was an honor. The pictures he took each, individually tell a different story that all touch you in a special way. I really recommend that everyone takes this tour, it will touch your heart. |

| Pictures are, they say, worth a thousand words. Particularly in this case. The pictures taken by Gary Suson and exhibited in this small museum are a way to get a better understanding of the human elements of 9/11 - both the tragedies and the successes and hopes. The pictures and the fascinating commentaries do the job tremendously well, and in an honest and moving way tell the story of the rescue and forensic efforts. I visited the museum and then visited the site itself, which is the best way to do this I would suggest. Thoroughly recommended. |

| This was my priority while on vacation and it was well with it. The story behind the pictures and articles recovered from ground zero were very touching. I remember, as most do, exactly where i was and what i was doing on 9-11 and it was amazing how Mr Suson (the photographer) put this museum together. Mr Suson was there at the museum on the day of our visit. He was very nice and personalized our book we bought with his autograph and took a photo with us. I would HIGHLY recommend this to anyone visiting New York. Thank you for the memories.........NEVER FORGET 9-11.
