God gave me troubled people to help. I received nothing I wanted. I received everything I needed. Carolyn Weaver | New York 07 September 2010Photo: dboxA rendering of the new World Trade Center site. Not all the buildings shown are yet under constructionNine years after the September 11 terror attacks leveled the World Trade Center39。s twin towers not a single new building has been pleted in the area known as Ground Zero. But in the last few months, a deadlock between local authorities and developers has eased, and prospective tenants for the flagship building, 1 World Trade Center, have begun to line up. Progress is even more visible at the September 11 Memorial and Museum.In late August, crews began transplanting the first of 400 Swamp White Oak trees into a plaza at Ground Zero, where nearly 2800 people died on September 11, 2001. The threehectare site will be a memorial to all those killed in the terror attacks in New York, Pennsylvania, and outside Washington. Joe Daniels, the president of the National September 11 Memorial amp。 Museum, told reporters he was pleased with the recent progress.We39。ve been working with Port Authority for the last few years, and it is an incredibly plex construction job, and we fully appreciate all the desire to get this done, he said. The reality is that there39。s been a tremendous amount of good work happening over the last few years, and these trees are a beautiful reminder of that.The trees are expected to grow to a forest canopy more than 24meterstall, shading visitors below, and plaques bearing the names of those who died. Nearby, waterfalls will plunge into two square, recessed pools set deep in the footprints of the twin towers. C. WeaverJoe Daniels, President of the National September 11 Memorial amp。 Museum To see these trees starting to soar to the sky on a day that you know, is not dissimilar to the way , 2001 was, Daniels said. It39。s just a beautiful reminder that this is going to be a place, a sacred place, where people are going to e and really e together.While the memorial is slated to open next year, the September 11 museum39。s opening date has been pushed to 2013. New York officials say they expect the Memorial and Museum to bee the city39。s top tourist destination.And major panies are expressing interest in leasing office space in five new mercial skyscrapers to be built at the World Trade Center site. New York Governor David Paterson spoke earlier this year about his expectations for the area, calling it the new crown jewel of lower Manhattan. It will be an international financial hub and attract world travelers who are anxious to see evidence of the human spirit overing adversity, he said. C.
