| This was a fantastic "big" little museum in the meatpacking district. My husband was working in the twin towers the day that they were attacked. He was one of the lucky ones, but he stayed for a week and helped with the recovery efforts. We both were deeply moved by the photography and the accompanying stories. This is a very personal take on what 9/11 meant to the photographer and he shares his stories with everyone who visits the museum. It is done in a very tasteful way, sympathetic to the survivors, and family members of the victims. It is a visit that stays with you weeks after you go. I felt that it was an overall positive experience, showing how the recovery can help people to move on from an awful tragedy. |

| This museum was wonderful because it really was about more than the World Trade Center Tragedy, it was about human strength, sensitiviy, spirituality, and sacrifice. It showed the best of New York it the most difficult of times. I was so greatful we took the time to visit. It touched all of us and filled our soul with peace and hope. Thank you. |

| We would recommend this activity as a must see for anyone traveling to New York. The Museum provides a different view of the 9/11 tragedy. It reminds us how Americans suffered and how Americans came together as a united country. It is a must see for all!!!! |

| I brought my granddaughter to New York city for her sixteenth birthday. We were going, doing, and seeing things non stop for an entire week and the museum ,without a doubt, was "THE HIGHLIGHT" of our trip!
I was impressed that the founder was there to give a very informative talk and to answer any questions we might have . He and his staff made us feel as if we were on sacred ground and in a way---------we were. I have to admire the way they make every effort to bring honor to the victims and their families. The full intention is to make this a place of healing and for those of us who visit not to ever "Forget" what happened on 9/11.
The experience for my granddaughter was priceless. I can not recommend this adventure high enough. |

| A truly amazing museum and one infused with emotion. The artificats that have been brought together from that fateful day along with the stories of those who lost loved ones paint a truly memorable picture of 9/11. It's a lesson for future generations in how so few can do so much harm to so many. I'd highly recommend the museum to anyone visiting New York. |

| We enjoyed the museum immensely. Gary, the photographer, happened to be there the day we went. I gained a greater appreciation and respect for those who worked at Ground Zero.
After going to the museum, we then took a subway to Ground Zero, observed the work from the observation point and went to St. Paul's Church where all the workers spent some time resting from their labors.
I would recommend the museum to anyone interested in 9/11 issues. It is a large one room set up. The power is in the stories, that you access through audio headsets, and the photos. That is well done. |

| Enjoy is the wrong words, but I felt privileged to be there and to see the artefacts. Because the museum is so small you feel much more involved somehow. |
