Too focused on firemen
Fri, May 1  11:00 AM shootnshop Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The museum is very small and has some very moving pictures. However, there were 5-6 stories that were emphasized and repeated from the video, the tour guide and the audio guide. Probably could have taken just an hour. My largest complaint is that it focused ONLY on the firemen, not on the other service personnel who lost their lives. Also, when Gary Suson talked on the audio guide of the pictures he took, he was a bit self congratulatory (irksome), like "I only had 60 seconds to take this photo). Who cares! It screamed of look how great of a photographer i am. Yes, he is, but that's not the purpose of the museum. Really detracted from our experience.

NYC Must do
Thu, Apr 30  11:00 AM mrmozza Male 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
Although we love to have plenty of fun on holidays a visit to the Ground Zero Museum Workshop is a must. It is quiet small but the experience is enormous. Here you really do begin to understand the true impact of 9/11 and the resilience of the survivors. It touched us all and the museum workshop shows a more personal side to the tragedy in a tasteful, informative and factual manner. Well done to Garry and the staff.

impressive
Mon, Apr 27  12:00 PM saskiavangil Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
A very impressive, hard and beautifull tour. We all saw the the planes flying into the twin towers, the movies, but what happened afterward, what you showed (in a very respectful, not dramatic way) in the tour means understanding what the people involves had to go through. I'm glad we had the change to see all that. It's a part of NYC, which need to be told. thanks

Picture gallery, not museum workshop
Mon, Apr 27  12:00 PM Sarah5830 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The place is a great little space, very intimate, which is the effect wanted by the owner, but at times it felt more like a gallery of his work, than a true museum of 9/11. The pictures are great, but it's the commentary attached to some of the photos which seem a bit incongruous at times. There's a great picture with the Americaln flag, but the talkover concentrates on how he got the picture 'just right', instead of the meaning of the photo. Maybe some pictures don't need dialogue attached to them. As a whole though, it's an interesting place to visit and it did give me more of an insight into the events surrounding that dreadful day.

Unique presentation
Sun, Apr 26  12:00 PM swhittle Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The museum was very small, limited to only 25 people at a time. We met at a location in the Meat-packing District, and were led to an upstairs room in an old warehouse. The museum guide was very friendly, courteous, and informative. The actual tour was conducted through a recording with headphones, narrated by the photographer whose work was featured and spent much time at the Ground Zero recovery site. It was interesting, but I felt that it would be more effective as part of a larger exhibit, rather than such an isolated event. I felt it was a bit expensive and at a rather inconvenient location.

A must see
Sat, Apr 25  3:00 PM CLDyson Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
I think this museum is a must see for any visitor to New York. I thought the museum was very tastefully done, and the audio descriptions of the photos and artefacts were very informative and interesting. It raised angles of this event that I had never considered before. The tours only allow a few people in the museum at any one time and I think this provides the space required to absorb all the information. Well worth the money.

A MUST SEE
Sat, Apr 25  11:00 AM deetlebug Female 70+ Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
We found the museum to be one of the highlights of our trip to NYC, if not the top one it ties with the Statue of Liberty. Tastefully done, Very emotional. We highly rcommend this to any and all. Thank you.

My daughter- age 26 - and I are very patriotic and she has lost a very good friend in Iraq. I, like so many other americans, were glued to our TV's during 911 and this was a very moving, meaningful and tasteful "next chapter" in my 911 journey. Thank you so much.

Packs Quite a Wallop
Fri, Apr 24  1:00 PM SpfldILGal Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Other
I was so impressed by the museum I struggled to put it all into words. My first draft I went on so long the page expired and I had to start over. Really! So this is shorter. This is an amazing, heart-wrenching and beautifully done museum. It does a wonderful job telling the stories behind the pictures. Absolute must see. Brings the pain, sacrifice and humanity of that terrible day and the months to follow to a reality for those of us who weren't there. Thank you to Mr. Suson, the museum staff, and everyone else involved; you've done the victims, their families, and the recovery workers proud. I hope you are able to keep this gem going in some fashion after the National 9/11 museum is open. Debra - Springfield, IL

Very moving tribute
Fri, Apr 24  1:00 PM nancyknott Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
This small museum is a very tasteful tribute to those lost on 9/11. The artifacts and photographs immerse you into the days following 9/11, and give a very real depiction of what went on during that time.

The museum and the presentation were excellent and touching. We are a family of two adults and two teens, ages 15 and 17. We all highly recommend this museum. Plan to spend time in the area (the meat packing district ) before or after you visit the museum to check out the great stores and restaurants, including Chelsea Market.
