The present proposal intends to remember the wound inflicted by terrorism on a ground of freedom by creating a unique and symbolic architectural integration of two flows, which go from material to immaterial, from the internal chamber of the Memorial located on the footprint of the North Tower, to the contemplation zone, to be wet by the cascade, located on the footprint of the South Tower. The two continuous flows get integrated one into the other to evoke all the victims of the horrific terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in New York City, Washington, D.C., of the flight that ended in Shanksville, PA, of the firemen who perished as heroes on duty in the Towers, and of the bombing of February 26th, 1993 making visible the footprints of the original World Trade Center Towers. http://registry.national911memorial.org/http://www.ruggerolenci.it/0058%20WTC.htm http://www.ruggerolenci.it/0058%20WTC.htm

Abstract
The present proposal intends to remember the wound inflicted by terrorism on a ground of freedom by creating a unique and symbolic architectural integration of two flows, which go from material to immaterial, from the internal chamber of the Memorial located on the footprint of the North Tower, to the contemplation zone, to be wet by the cascade, located on the footprint of the South Tower. The two continuous flows get integrated one into the other to evoke all the victims of the horrific terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001 in New York City, Washington, D.C., of the flight that ended in Shanksville, PA, of the firemen who perished as heroes on duty in the Towers, and of the bombing of February 26th, 1993 making visible the footprints of the original World Trade Center Towers. http://registry.national911memorial.org/http://www.ruggerolenci.it/0058%20WTC.htm http://www.ruggerolenci.it/0058%20WTC.htmI documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
