The memorial centre is good though, but very overwhelming!! They have boxes of tissues placed discretely around - good idea! The wall of missing persons posters really shows the sorrow and desperation of those left behind. The memorial perfectly captured the emotions from the day - confusion, panic, fear, anxiety for loved ones, and sadness.
On the outside wall of the building is a memorial to the fire fighters
After ground zero we went to Century 21 - a huge, discount, outlet store. There was so much stuff there, a bit too much to sift through. We didn't say very long, I bought socks! Across the road is a another huge store - J&R Electronics. We walked into the computer section - didn't realise the store was a whole block split into different shops - each shop was a different section of J&R!!! HUGE!
Next stop, Wall Street. Not much activity on a Saturday
Stock Exchange
Then we headed over to the Brooklyn Bridge
Lower East Side from the Brooklyn Bridge
