9/11's 25th Anniversary

Escalation: New York City Transformed Since 9/11

New York City marked the 25th anniversary of the 9/11 attacks with ceremonies across the city and road closures around the memorial events. An installation of 2,977 lights rose over New York Harbor, rebuilding the outline of the Twin Towers as a tribute.

The day also highlighted how the city has been remade since 2001, with downtown life no longer defined only by Wall Street and a skyline visibly reshaped around the World Trade Center site. Commemorations paired remembrance with a view of a rebuilt Lower Manhattan.
