9/11 Memorial Glade

The Glade was dedicated on May 30, 2019, the 17th Anniversary of the official end of the recovery effort. It is located just west of the Survivor Tree, roughly where the primary ramp that was used during the rescue and recovery effort once stood. In the history of the World Trade Center, the Ramp played an essential role in allowing victims’ families to access the site following the attacks, as well as workers who removed debris and established a pathway for rebuilding.
