Ground Zero Museum Workshop and Ground Zero Site

Sept. 17

GROUND ZERO MUSEUM WORKSHOP, located in NYC's Meat-Packing District, is a must-see before visiting the former World Trade Center site. Labeled "Rare Photos" by the New York Times and "Incredible" by Fox News Channel, it is one of the highest rated

tours in NYC. (4.8 stars average out of 5 stars in customer reviews) The museum's daily 2-hour tours educate visitors about the incredible and often heart-wrenching images and stories that took place INSIDE Ground Zero during the 9-month "Recovery." Created by Gary Marlon Suson, the only Official Photographer at Ground Zero for the Uniformed Firefighters Association and an FDNY Honorary Battalion Chief, the museum also allows guests to pick up and hold WTC remnants for a more intimate experience. Tours include a special 12-minute film in surround sound only viewable at the museum, personal narration by a trained guide and the self-guided listening units that contain 100 stories behind the remnants and stunning images that are on display. View the "Frozen Clock" – Honor Guard images and the famous "Genesis 11: Tower of Babylon" Bible Page photo. You will also see actual tools that were used for digging and items worn by recovery workers. Books and posters are available for sale at the end of each tour. The museum was inspired by Mr. Suson's emotional, 2004 visit to the Anne Frank House in Holland, leading him to create a similar museum that would help people learn about what transpired in the months that followed the 9-11 attacks. Ground Zero Museum Workshop is the only museum of its kind in New York.  When in town, Mr. Suson will sit in and personally conduct tours.
