Talk fifty seven.
New York, 14th April, in the morning
- This is our third trip to New York during which we come to visit Ground Zero[3]. Every time I see it, I go through it all over again!
- Ground Zero[4] changes from year to year, even though everything is slower here than at any other New York investments.
- Because it is a special place. A memorial and worship place.
- The memorial to the events of September 11, 2001, and the whole Grand Zero made a great impression on me.
- The construction of the Freedom Tower and other surrounding skyscrapers still continues. It may take another two years.
- What really caught me, was the sight of those two great pools – fountains, in places where there the two WTC towers had been.
- What really caught me were all the names etched in bronze on the boards around the pools.
- Instinctively we were looking for Polish names.
- And I could not resist not to touch those names. Anyway, everybody was doing so...
- Did you see that only tree that survived the attack?
- Yes, I did. And I also saw how it is now being protected!
