The Twin powerful beam light was positioned on the roof near
where the world trade center stood in honor of the souls that went down with it
on September 11. The light memorial reaches four miles skyward, according to
the Municipal Art Society, a nonprofit group that orchestrates the
$500,000-a-year project.
The twin light is a solemn promise that the nation
would one day rebuild. Since that first evening, "Tribute in Light"
has become one of the world's most powerful displays of remembrance and
perseverance. A work of public art produced by the Municipal Art Society of New
York, the two beams can reportedly be seen by a 60-mile radius on a clear
night, from Brooklyn to the Bronx, Queens to Staten Island, and Wall Street to
Jersey City.
