The museum succeeds in creating an intimate space where the stories about the recovery of Ground Zero are beautifully conveyed through pictures and accompanying audio-telling. My mum, my sister and I all thoroughly enjoyed the museum although the theme is very strong and it is not an uplifting experience. |

Honestly one of the best experiences I've ever had. It allowed me to understand 9/11 in a way that I never had before. It also allows you to understand what actually went on at Ground Zero for the months that followed the attacks. The museum is focused on healing, not on despair. I was moved as an American and as a human being to see the love that was outpoured as a result of so much tragedy. Truly beautiful. |

I loved the personal touch to this museum, you feel as though the staff really care about it. My 10yo son didn't actually know much about 9/11 and he was ended up being the last to leave the tour! The fact you could do it in your own time is fabulous. I love the personal stories, how they're dealt with sensitively and the candles lend a calming non-sensationalist atmosphere. I particularly like that the tour is limited in numbers and I would recommend you take the last tour of the day so you have as much time as you need. I highly recommend this museum, and take my hat off to the photographer who created it and the staff who run it. |

My intention, after witnessing first hand, the events of 9/11 was to finally go to the site. When I googled "9/11 memorial," I was brought to your site. I thought that I was getting a guided tour of the memorial. Instead, I was brought to a museum where I was subjected to more images of that awful day that I already had in my mind. If nothing else, please provide a ticket to the actual memorial so people like me who were finally ready to see how it is now, rather than how we remember it, are given that opportunity. |

Small in size, big in content.

A small museum, well-organised workshop (good reason why they had to limit the number of participants in a tour group and be strict about the time), but really big in heart and sincere in content. |

Really Personalizes 9/11 even 11 years later

I think every person should get this up close chance to see the personal items and stories from a day we will never forget. It puts names and faces on the 3,000 lost as well as all those involved in the recovery. |

The museum was better than we imagined. It was inspiring, inciteful & fillled with stories of hope. I brought family members age 15 to 23 and they listened many times over to the tapes. The tour guides was warm and educational. The shower curtain was the biggest surprise. |
