911 Runs 24/7

In a continued reflection on 911 and the whole "ground zero" experience we were told when we checked in that the construction on rebuilding the ground zero site was a 24 hour a day project.

Here are three images of the same area of the ground zero site. In particular it is the quadrant of the site that the twin towers were located. Essentially the south tower was located just to the right (north) of the white building with the curved line (subway) going under it. The north tower was located on the other side of the ram going down into the construction area.

The three images were shot for our 19th floor hotel room and were taken early in the morning, afternoon, and late at night receptively. Construction continues through out the day and night to get the project completed by 2011. It was truly a site to behold and I feel privileged to have witnessed it from such a unique vantage point.

Until tomorrow... Doug
