    The views from the Freedom Tower were wonderful. It turned out to be a clear day with great viability. As a New Yorker, who worked across the street from the Twin Towers and had friends who perished in the attack, it took me all this time to bring myself to go. I am very thankful that I did. The Memorial was very impressive and important for future generations.

    Fantastic views, efficient staff organizing the lines. We came at the perfect time, to catch the end of the sun set. We were surprised by the WIND when we first stepped out onto the viewing platform.
