A disappointment Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Thu, May 29, 08 11:00 AM	rlouise1	Female	60-69	Domestic Tourist(s)	Individual
It was just an "o.k." exhibit, not as good as what I had expected from reading previous reviews. There was much repetition from the video, handout, guide comments and the actual exhibit.
Amazing! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Mon, May 26, 08 2:00 PM	zip2play	Female	30-39	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family With Children
We are from Kansas and when our tour bus dropped us off at the actual Ground Zero site, we were suprised. At this time there wasn't anything to see or no where to basically pay our respects. We spoke to our hotel about that and they suggested we go to the Ground Zero Museum workshop. We had them immediately call and we scheduled our reservation. My husband and I, along with my parents and our 2 kids (age 6 and 9) made our way down to the museum in the meat packing district. We were a bit alarmed where we ended up and then to find it was a 1 room facility at first we thought we had been took. But 2+ hours later, I had to be pulled from the place. The interactive set up is nothing short of amazing. Both of my kids spent a lot of time going through all the different things we could listen to. It held their attention for the entire 2 hours. We had the last slot of the day so we were told we could stay as long as we liked. I found it all extremely moving. This isn't a museum describing what led up to that awful day, but a memorial to the people that worked tirelessly for 6 months after 09/11 and the people that perished that horrible day! The workers painstakingly trying to find the remains in the most respectful way they could. Amazing is how all 6 of us described it. I laughed, I cried and I was in held in AW for the entire time. I would suggest this wonderful place to anyone who can remember that fateful day in September 2001! It is a wonderful tribute to all that died and all that worked the site after the event. Gary, the photographer/artist happened to be there the day we visited (which happened to be Memorial Day 2008) and he was an amazingly genuine person. He took the time to speak to both of my kids. He didn't hover over them and worry about what they might do....he truly offered his words of help and support. We strongly suggest this place when you plan your New York tours. It is off the beaten path, but it will be the most memorable 2 hours of your trip!

I am a firefighter and I feel this display of photos, artifacts and stories was done in a very tasteful and heartfelt manner. It touched my heart. It keeps those who lost their lives on that horrible day ... very much alive. Awesome collection.
Excellent Museum Workshop Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

This activity is a must for anyone who wants an "insider view" to the post 9/11 work at the World Trade Center Ground Zero site. The two hours allocated to this workshop is barely enough to take in all of the information available at this activity. This workshop tour may not hold the attention of small children for the entire two hours as it is a self guided activity, though there are artifacts from the World Trade Center Ground Zero site that will hold everyone's attention for at least the first hour. I highly recommend this tour as a non-strenuous way to remember the events of September 11, 2001 and the ensuing months of recovery work at the site.
A must see! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

The Ground Zero Workshop is a must see! Attend the workshop and then head to Ground Zero to see it in person. The workshop was very informative and was very sensitive to the issues at hand. Well worth the money spent. A once in a life time opportunity.
Don't Miss! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

After reading other reviews, we decided to take a chance on this one and we're so glad that we did. This is a very small but powerful museum. We met Gary the photographer, and what he has done is a true gift to all of us. The film and audio of the photographs were not only amazing, they were respectful and dignified, a wonderful tribute to the families of the victims of this unimaginable attack on our country. The setting is initimate and the group size small so that you can take your time to examine and think upon each photograph. The artifacts from Ground Zero and the personal stories allow you relive September 11, renew your patriotic spirit and have a personal insight into the entire process following the attack. Make this #1 on your list of things to do in New York City! You won't be disappointed.
Moving experience Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Overall the small museum provided a great perspective focused on the recovery process at ground zero. The photos were exceptional, and the stories behind them provided a personal view of the experience. The museum was primarily photography; however there were several artifacts from ground zero that provided an additionally chilling experience.
great for the whole family Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

my wife and i took our 8 yr old son and 5 yr old son. tastefully done so that my boys could be there, learn, and not have nightmares. GREAT job, Suson. on the negative side, we did have our vehicle towed b/c we parked in an area that wasn't clearly marked.
A must do.......... Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

I think this is something that everyone should do and see. We watched on television but to actually go to the museum and hear the stories, touch remnants from the towers, etc just really helps you to understand the gravity of what happened on 9/11. I recommend it to everyone and pray we "Never Forget".
Lest we forget..... Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

We Americans have a tendancy to forgive & forget....all to soon! Gary has done a great job of documenting 9/11. Although the displays are super, I recommend you take a few minutes to look at his book which is for sale. It contains many more photos that are not on display at the museum.
Definitely worth a visit Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Very well done and tasteful. The small intimate setting was ideal. One thing I will note (without opinion) is that the museum has a significant religious tone to it. Heavier on the side of Chrisitanity.
I WAS BLOWN AWAY!! Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

hi dont let the Size of the museum alter/change your intentions!! It is the equivalant of a studio apt. of sorts!! the tour lasts 30 mins. Complete with the audio 'tour' included... Very Powerful!! as only few could recall upon this tragic time!! a bit difficult to find,,, yet the web page does help w accurrate directions... i live just outside of chicago!! and it's Defintely worth the $25!!! REMINDER!! IT IS NOT NEAR GROUND ZERO!!!! That memorial 'museum' is good yet 1/2 the price,, and 1/4rth the Intensity!! i specifically came to new york to see Ground Zero plus a couple of other things.... THIS MUSEUM MADE MY TRIP!! i took the subway!! so all some time yet Enjoy! J.R. Ambrosia

Touching reminder of what we should not forget Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour
Sun, May 18, 08 12:00 PM	GatorCroc	Female	20-29	Domestic Tourist(s)	Family Without Children
Both touching and emotional, the museum was a great reminder of what we should never forget. My husband is a firefighter, and it was wonderful to take him to the Ground Zero Museum. Though compact, the museum is filled with many memories and stories — stories of men and women who risked their lives for others, and who worked to honor those who had fallen. Suson, the photographer and founder of the museum, pushed past his own inhibitations and documented a tragedy that showed the US how strong we really are, and brought us all together. Be prepared to be emotional...and remember.
Realistic, impressive and graphic exposure Ground Zero Museum Workshop Tour

Such a sad moment in US history was showed and explained with respect and realism to the victims. I believe that this could be increase since I am sure there are lots of photograpic material to show.
