The heart of Ground Zero

| Although we visited Ground Zero itself, it wasn't until we experienced the Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour that we really connected on a personal level with what happened on 9/11. So much emotion packed into one small space just can't be described in a few short words. I guess it's what you feel once all of the horror has settled with the dust of the destruction and some how, some way life managed to go on. It's awful and wonderful at the same time. | ||||||

| Well documented and very informative, done very well, kind of surreal and a great way to honor those who passed in this tragedy and especially to honor the workers who tirelessly worked for many months in the recovery effort. | ||||||

Interesting Pictures and Artifacts of Ground Zero
|

| Sun, Oct 11 12:00 PM | jefferst | Female | 50-59 | Domestic Tourist(s) | Individual | |
| My husband and I did this tour together. We have watched numerous documentaries on 9/11 and consider ourselves pretty knowledgeable and well read about the events. The most powerful photos were familiar as we had seen them published before. I think the positioning of this to be a "museum" was a bit over the top. And although I thought the tour guides did an exceptional job of presenting and setting expectations of what we'd see verbally, their dress and physical expressions as they conveyed information seemed a bit hokey...the use of walkie talkies, the blue uniformed shirts, etc took away from the value of the content. A more appropriate context to me would be an artist's point of view on 9/11...from that perspective there were certainly moving pictures and some stories I hadn't heard before or remembered. Allow 2 hours for this was way too much time. One hour to an hour and a half is ample. | ||||||

Interesting

| Interesting event -- but I feel it's as much a study of the museum's curator as it is a study of the heroic rescue and recovery efforts. Here is exactly what happens -- you see a 5 minute CNN video piece about the musuem's curator, and how he came to take the photographs he did, and the various emotions he felt while working on the project. Then there's about a 15 minute video slideshow of the photos from the curator's book. Then you pass around three artifacts from Ground Zero. The first and second artifacts are crosses and Jewish stars the recovery workers cut from the steel salvaged from the site, and the third is a piece of glass from the WTC recovered at the scene (glass was very rare in the rubble --most of it turned back into sand from the heat). Then, you have about one hour to walk around the room, using your "TourMate" headphone systems. There are framed blow-ups of the photos you have just seen in the video, and each one is numbered, and you punch in the number on the TourMate and hear a brief story about each photo. There are also some other artifacts (calculators, calendars, clocks) which are also numbered and you can do the same for those. All in all, an interesting way to learn about the WTC recovery efforts. Also, the workshop is located in the Meatpacking District, a burgeoning interesting neighborhood. Recommend walking down the street to the High LIne park after your tour. If you can't make the tour, might want to consider buying the book with the photographs. | ||||||

| An incredibly rewarding few hours.. Gary's spirit and passion ooze out of the walls of this very special place. If you visit New York you must come. Be prepared to relive some of the raw emotions of 9/11. You will also be uplifted by the photos and stories of the many heroes of that day. Bravo Gary and thank you for letting us share the experiences and insights that were granted only to you.. | ||||||

Best 2 hour spent in Manhattan
|

| This must be the best 2 hour that we have spent in Manhattan. I was lucky enough not to lose any friends in the 9/11 attack but through the photos, narration etc. I could fully understand the pain of those who did, the heroic actions of the rescuers and why this was an attack on mankind, on freedom and on the very ideals that we all believe in. It was definitely a very moving experience and worth every cent. | ||||||
