NYC & the WTC Site - Another Perspective

World Trade Center Site
As of 21 August, 2004

These photos were taken three weeks before September 11th, 2004. We were in NYC for a wedding. While visiting the WTC site, we were suddenly caught in a thunderstorm. Seeking shelter, we ran across the street to an intriguing old church. The church was St. Paul’s Chapel with its small cemetery, flowers and protective old trees. It is literally across the street from where the towers stood. The parish is the oldest public building in NYC, (President George Washington worshiped there), and it miraculously survived the devastation unscathed. In fact, the parish quickly became a respite for rescuers.

To this day, the walls are covered with messages from schoolchildren around the world to the victims and survivors. The stubborn little sanctuary, though surrounded by fear and uncertainty, continues to provide hope and solace...

    Feedback is most welcome and appreciated. Also, please vote if you like what you see.
