Absolutely Intensely Moving!
Mon, Jun 16, 08   12:00 PM travelers3 Unspecified Unspecified Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
I feel so priviledged and blessed for having been permitted to view the 9-11 pictoral human-ness of that horrible day, and to hear the obviously heartfelt dialogue of the official NYFD photographer, Gary Suson, as he literally waded through one gut-wrenching experience after another. The personal experiences of Gary is portrayed through his compassionate and tasteful photography. No one can leave the same as he entered the museum. The regret is the exhibit is only there in NYC and not more accessible to the masses around the nation. Thank you so much for this always to be remembered experience. We attended as mother, adult daughter, and 14 yr old grandson. The exhibit was captivating to each one equally.

How the cruelty of humanity can be trumped by love
Sat, Jun 14, 08   11:00 AM rachelkelly1 Female 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
The workshop is amazing and I have recommended it to everyone that I have spoken to. It was incredible to see such intimate photos of this horrific time in our history. To think that fellow humans could have orchestrated this whole terrorist act is mind-numbing. Seeing the photos and listening to the audio reminded me of when I woke up to the radio while in New Zealand, hearing that this tragedy had occurred and feeling so helpless and grief-stricken for the victims - their final minutes, and the lifetime of grief of those that were left behind. However, I felt like I gained a greater perspective of the lives that were touched so chillingly during that time. Attending this workshop has made me so grateful to be alive, but so humbled that so many people lost their lives, or have the memories of such terror imprinted into their souls. Thank you so much for having this resource - I can see how people would gain great solace and closure from such a place.

A very informative tour
Sat, Jun 14, 08   11:00 AM Annerox Female 50-59 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The whole theme was presented very factually and very well without over sentimentality. Although we were very moved by the whole tour we were pleased that it seemed to avoid upsetting scenes and actions that I would have found quite hard to personally deal with. A must see if in New York for a few days

A provoking view of a crucial event in US history

The photographs, artifacts, and the accompanying story lines (on the audio devices) provide insight and little-known stories about an event which changed the world and the US forever.

You won't want to miss it.

After seeing all the sights, this was one of the last things on my daughter and my list. Absolutely the best part of our trip!! One of the most moving experiences of my life. Such a warm and comforting atmosphere. The photos, artifacts, & stories make you feel such a part of the whole event. Love the book we purchased we both read it cover to cover, and other family members are waiting patiently for their turn.

Amazing Experience
Thu, Jun 12, 08   1:00 PM dantekids Male 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
The museum is amazing! The narration is very touching and provides insight into the events that cannot be found anywhere else. There are many fascinating (and a few very unusual) objects that survived the attack. Visitors even have the opportunity to handle many items. All visitors to New York City should visit. It is an unforgetable experience. I highly recommend it!

Very inspirational, straight from the heart
Tue, Jun 10, 08   11:00 AM Terimiller Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Individual
The 911/Ground Zero museum was great. It was very simple, but straight to the point. No "fluff"!!! The best way to feel you were there or have been there is through visual and touch. That's exactly what the museum has to offer. It has a display of photography that is amazing. What is ever so amazing is that none of the photographs were altered so you would buy them! It was the reality of the scene, good and bad. You don't have a chose, but to witness what the people who helped dig and clear ground zero did. You feel sad and happy after leaving the museum. The reason for the sadness is understood, but the happiness of how the people pulled together is very touching. The TV could never illustrate the whole truths, but the museum does. If you are lucky enough to meet the photographer/firefighter that made this all possible you are even more fortunate. I had that opportunity and he was real!!!!! The energy and love he has for "his" museum is electric. Take the short amount of time while you are in THE CITY and see what REALLY happened at Ground Zero. Buy his collection while you are there. You can take your time and really see what he saw and felt. There are moments in his book you think you are there. You can cry and laugh again, alone! With much thanx for inviting me into a huge part of your life, Teri Miller P.s. I WILL see you on broadway!

Very Insightful
Tue, Jun 10, 08   11:00 AM robertakeene Female 50-59 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Ground zero museum workshops brings the horror and aftermath of 9/11 to life as it was seen by firefighters and workers on the scene. It was one of the most touching things I have ever experienced. To see the artifacts and the faces of the workers as what happened was being unfolded was life changing.

An experience never to be forgotten.
Mon, Jun 9, 08   12:00 PM Maggs9 Female 40-49 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
Lost for words ........ A truly amazing exhibition for anyone that wishes to have some understanding of 9/11 and its recovery. Gary Marlon Suson beautifully portrays images and items leaving you feeling full of emotion and understanding of something that is so difficult to come to terms with. It certainly is worth a visit in a very relaxed atmosphere and I would recommend it to anyone.

I truly enjoyed the tour. I was a little skeptical at first because it is small but I was very suprised. It was well worth it! Very touching and I learned a few things about the events of 9/11 that I never knew. Alot is packed into this small tour!! You must see it if you are in New York!

VERY MOVING
Sun, Jun 8, 08   12:00 PM sue_swaine Female 20-29 International Tourist(s) Individual
I would definitely recommend the Ground Zero Museum. It is an emotional and intimate experience - with over 100 exhibits displayed in just a small studio room. The tour starts with a couple of short video clips which are very moving - lots of tissues being passed around - then there is the chance to hold some artifacts extracted from Ground Zero. Finally the audio tour lets you hear the stories behind chosen exhibits and photographs. There's 2 hours allocated to each tour, so there is time to hear every story, if you can handle it.

A MUST for ANYONE in NYC
Sat, Jun 7, 08   3:00 PM coco_davis Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
Very moving, respectful tribute to 9/11. The memories, the moments, the thoughts, the people, encompasses all aspects of that fateful day and the many days that followed. The curators were so kind, and the owner/photographer mingled with us at the end of the tour. He also took time to take photos with our group which ranged in ages of 40 to 10. All museum content was appropriate for all. I would put this museum at the top of your to do list in New York City. God's Blessings, Your 4 Texas Ladies!
