Mission
The memorial effort serves as an independent and non-financial, public educational forum dedicated to the preservation of the documentary and physical evidence of September 11, 2001; honoring the memory of those tragic, yet historic, events so that, collectively, we should never forget.

The project location recognizes the fact that all four fated aircraft were destined for California that day, and complements the other existing (or anticipated) memorial and preservation efforts geographically situated at, or near, the actual event sites.
