9/11 Memorial — Attraction in Boston

Every time I landed at Logan Airport, my routine was simple: head straight to the Uber/Lyft pickup area at Terminal A/E and go home. I had never realized that a 9/11 Memorial was located nearby, near the Hilton Hotel. Today, for the first time, I followed the signs and discovered this meaningful site.

The memorial is just a short walk away, along a gently curving pathway. It consists of two distinct sections, about 50 meters apart. The first section is an open circular space with the inscription "Remember this day," inviting visitors to pause and reflect. Nearby, a glass enclosure contains two walls with information about the two flights involved in the tragic events, including their departure times and details.

It serves as a poignant reminder of the lives lost and the significance of that fateful day. While not a large memorial, its simplicity and design make it a powerful tribute.

The 9/11 Memorial in New York Ground Zero & 9/11 Museum is one of the most beautiful sites that I have ever seen in my life as a former veteran of the United States Army Reserves based in Texas and also a family member, friend & American.

This year on Sunday, September 11, 2022, marks 21 years since the 9/11 Attacks on the World Trade Center in New York, Maryland & outside of Pennsylvania. Continually praying for the families that have been affected and that grace and mercy will prevail.

Surrounded by several ginkgo trees, the 9/11 Memorial was erected in remembrance of all those who tragically lost their lives in the terrorist attacks of 2001. The memorial itself commemorates the two flights hijacked at Boston Airport and all those on board. Its simple design pays subtle respect to the victims and their families. Since we had a several-hour layover at Boston Airport, we visited this memorial. While it's not that easy to find, it's quickly reached by walking across the Skybridge towards the Hilton Airport Hotel and parking garage. A visit is worthwhile for a moment of...
