Not what we expected Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

It is very difficult to find. We almost wondered if it was a legitimate place. You have to ring a bell and go to the second story of a building to find it. I thought it would explain the events of 9-11 and have pictures of that day. It was all about the recovery starting in November of 2001. So no pictures of the actual day it happend. There are about 100 items or pictures all in a little studio room and you walk around listening to a description of them. If I had known that I would not have gone. It was good to go to but I wish we would have gone to the actual ground zero visitors center. If you go to this just remember that it is of the recovery and it is very small. I would say this is good but also go to the visitor's center at the site. If you don't have a lot of time in New York this may be something that you hold off on. We had 2 days and I felt like we could have spent our time better.
Eye opening, needed experience Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

You hear a lot about 9/11 but nothing as uplifting and eye opening as this. The experience changed a lot of the outlook I had for this day. You can touch artifacts and put stories with faces. I know a lot of times I watched the news and wondered how much of the story are we really getting. This museum will tell you the full story with faces and names. Please dont be skeptical about it's size. It isnt about the size of the room, but the impact of what it holds.
Moving Tribute Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

My outlook on the event has completly changed from visiting this workshop.This is a very tastefully done tribute to those that were lost that day.You can touch artifacts as well as listen to stories behind pictures. Gary has done a fantastic job in capturing the emotion-no words are needed for the pictures as they tell the story,something which I found very moving. Watching the event on T.V was one thing, but visiting the workshop really opened my eyes.The guide was fantastic as she took her time to go through the artifacts & pictures. A must see if in New York.

having been a NYer all of my life and being in NYC on 9/11 I was reluctant and at the same time drawn to the museum. I have been to the WTC site many times since 9/11, have many friends and family members who have experienced personal loss and who participated in the search and rescue. It was a pleasure to be able to take each part of the exhibit at one's own pace. Choose to skip over certain parts or spend extra time at others. the size of the exhibit and the restriction of participants gave you an opportunity not often found in a museum and certainly not in one in NYC. I took my son who was 11 at the time of the attack and who has a different perspective, but nonetheless, he too was impressed. While it was an emotional experience, it was not overwhelming. Balanced? Respectful certainly. Memorable and worth the time.
This was a very meaningful and well done memorial Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

My two sisters and I traveled from Iowa to view this memorial to 9-11, and it was very well done and we felt that it was a fitting tribute to those who died on 9-11. We hope that all peoples who mourn those who perished in these attacks, will go to experience this memorial. Our guide was so nice and concerned that we benefit from all the displays and really explained everything in the exhibit. Thank you so much..
Absolutely Intensely Moving! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
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 Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

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 Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

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

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.

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 Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

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 Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

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!
