We are a group of women from ages 26 to 72. We all enjoyed this museum, it was fabulous. We were lucky enough to have the photographer be at the museum while we were there. This is a must do, while you are in New York!

An Amazing Experience
Sat, Nov 10, 07   11:30 AM nstarker Female 30-39 Domestic Tourist(s) Group of Friends
A friend and I attended the museum workshop in November 2007 and our group was lucky enough to be able to meet Gary Suson. My father did not die in the 9/11 attacks but he was a fallen firefighter and I wanted to visit this museum our of respect for his brothers lost in 9/11 and the families that they left behind. This is a deeply moving and informative experience and tribute. The great care and respect that guided the creation of this museum is evident in every aspect from the guides to the artifacts to the photos and they way that everything is presented. It is non-commercial and heartfelt and Gary Suson is truly a special person for having captured a time of such despair, hope, sadness and love and sharing it in this way. The personal stories attached to the displays within the museum allow visitors to try to gain some sort of understanding of this tragedy and share a tiny burden of grief with those who lost loved ones in the attacks. It is a experience that we will never forget. Take this tour before visiting Ground Zero.

Ambivalent

Unfortunately - I thought the 'Tour' was actually a tour of the site - not just a video, and a group of photos, items and audio that was simply a rehash of the video. Some of the stories attached to the photos were interesting and sometimes touching but most were just a rehash of the video. Also not so sure I like the whole 'commercialisation' of what seems to be a private museum, funded by tourism, of a terrible and sad tragedy. Having a piece of metal that people could touch or a piece of some building or aeroplane that still had some of the dust (and perhaps some minute part of somebody's body) on it seemed a little goulish to me. Still each to their own and I guess some people would find some sort of interest in this exhibition

Informative - Thought provoking

It was informative to here the narratives behind the photos. Mr. Marlon was there and was very gracious to the attendees of the tour. My only input would be that I wish there was more to view.

Everything was not only accurate but heartbreaking

Gary Suson personally gave us a photgraphic review along with some hands on memorabilia. His exhibits will be embedded forever in ones memory about the horror that took place on that awful day, 9/11/01.

Moving and Interesting
Tue, Nov 6, 07   11:30 AM rachaelledge Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Family Without Children
The tour was extremely well put together and very thoughtful in considering the victims and the families of the victims. There were parts of it that made me tearful and the exhibits displayed are appropriate and amazing. The photographer was there when we were on the tour and was available for questions about his experience at Ground Zero. We walked down to Ground Zero after the tour and then finished off at Battery Park where the globe that used to be in the WTC Plaza is now displayed.

A moving tribute to events after 9/11
Mon, Nov 5, 07   12:00 PM tritreadwell Female 30-39 International Tourist(s) Group of Friends
This exhibition provided the story behind the many images we've seen in the papers since 9/11. It made me realise that so much good and compassion has come out of a horrific and senseless act.

It was very interesting and touching
Sat, Nov 3, 07   1:00 PM maryellenr Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
What the museum lacks in size it gains in size - in other words, its one room has enough memorabilia to fill a larger area. The photos are extremely touching and the electronic tour told us everything we ever wondered about that day. It was a highly emotional experience and one that won't soon be forgotten.

This little gem of a museum is definitely a work of "heart" as well as art. The pictures were great & seeing the artefacts brought back memories of that fateful day. "We will not forget" - thank you to Gary for creating this memorial.

Awesome, educational, and moving!

I visited the museum on a recent trip to NY, with my friends and family. I found this link online, and we all decided to purchase tickets. It was one of the highlights of our trip. It was a moving experience, and I learned a lot about that fateful day. We lucked out and the photographer himself, Gary Suson, was there, and what a treat! He was great. He allowed pictures, signed books, and shared his personal story. It was awesome, and something I will never forget. I recommend this to everyone!!

A Must See..
Sat, Oct 27, 07   2:30 PM whitneyemc Female 40-49 Domestic Tourist(s) Family With Children
The mystery surrounding the location of the musuem made me suspicious...like we had been ripped off. From the guy who greeted us at the door till the end of our "tour" was an unforgetable experience. The initimate setting was the perfect showcase for such ...personal, emotion scratching photographs.

Best Museum I've ever been to
Sat, Oct 27, 07   2:30 PM MonkeyJay23 Male 20-29 Domestic Tourist(s) Couple on a Date
It may be small in size but it does not lack in emotion. The self-guided tour with Gary's narrative is excellent. It really puts the pictures in the museum into context for the viewer. At first sight, I was not impressed as I walked into a room the size of my living room with pictures on the wall. But every picture I walked up to and every narrative I listened to, it completely changed my mind. I would highly recommend this museum to anybody who wants to know more about 9/11 and the biggest act of terrorism on U.S. soil. There was so much about this tragedy and how the FDNY and the NYPD reacted that I didn't even know about until I went through this museum workshop. This is a must-see for anyone in the military also.
