摘要

The 4.5-acre, multilevel World Trade Center Site Memorial will cost approximately $350 million, including $175 million for infrastructure, say New York state officials. Though groundbreaking for the project is set for Sept. 11, officials have not yet released a schedule or finish date. On Jan. 14, the Lower Manhattan Development Corp., with New York Gov.George E. Pataki (R) and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg (R), unveiled the revised design of Reflecting Absence, the memorial competition winner announced Jan. 6 (ENR 1/12 p. 7). But even the revision, based on input from WTC master planner Daniel Libeskind, will continue to evolve, said Vartan Gregorian, spokesman for the C9mpetition's 13-member, unpaid jury.
