    Thoughtfully place, we'll done, not tacky or sentimental
    Casual visitor. But we'll worth it. We'll done US, you have turned a big negative into a beautiful place. I particularly love how you cannot see into the base of the waterfalls, good design

    Eary silence and a great way to remember those who lost their lives on 9/11
    You might be in the city but the quietness of are, people just stood looking at the waterfalls listening to the sound of it and looking at the names them who lost their lives. The stone is cool to touch and a fitting remembering space. The whole place is sereal and the skyline might have changed but the memories are still there.

    Beautiful, appropriate and moving (but no signage)
    This was a beautiful space (and we loved the Oculus, too) but we were mystified by the lack of signage/story boards. Especially as the museum, where presumably most of the information is contained, was closed (as it apparently is on Tuesdays). We never found the special tree and wanted to know about why the names were arranged as they were.

    Amazing
    They have more than 1 Trade Centre. The park has the two pools to represent the twin towers. However the first row of trees closest to the pools represent where the buildings actually stood. All the names of those that were lost have their names on the wall around the pools. If you see a flower by the name, the colour represents whether it is a birthday or anniversary for the person.

    It's been under construction for a long time, many years. But now it is coming together as a lovely park in the middle of one of the most dense parts of the city. so some welcome art, green space, and the commemorative spaces. Some good spots to get a perspective on it all. On a sunny day, it is remarkable.

    Very moving
    A piece of American history that gives a glimpse into the American psyche. Central to the exhibition are the people who died. Names, photographs and testimonies are tasteful, moving and somber. Interesting display on Bin Laden and Al-Qaeda.

    Pause for Reflection
    The site of the two towers which were destroyed in the terrorist attack in 2001 has become a very poignant place to visit. Located in the financial district of Manhattan where once there were two bustling office blocks there is now two waterfalls into the ground. Surrounding the two squares are recorded the names of the people who perished in the tragedy. I would recommend visiting this place as it should be a place for contemplation. We should never allow our differences to be so big that we choose to take the lives of others to get our point across and hopefully this is something that this park now represents.

I was lucky to go up Twin Towers back in 1981 and to stand at the waterfall reflecting on the lives that were lost was very moving. The area outside is very quiet and respectful.

Beautiful park and memorial. Truly the best possible way to commemorate 911. The memorial is perfect and I highly recommend coming here. It is a must see!

World trade Centre's Liberty Park is a peaceful area. This is the Memorial for the National 9/11 event. It is a place for reflection.

Park is well done. Not too crowded. Nice place to hang out, look around, and reflect on what happened. Impressive the rebuilding that has occurred in the area. Disappointing the museum has been closed.

We visited on a Tuesday when the museum was shut. This was good as it was fairly quiet, allowing contemplation. It is striking.
