Latest Design Is Unveiled for 9/11 Museum

A design shows the World Trade Center memorial museum pavilion, upper left corner, at night, with two trident columns from the original twin towers housed in its corner atrium. In the foreground and center background are the waterfalls and pools marking the towers’ location. (Rendering: Squared Design Lab/National September 11 Memorial and Museum)
