Private 9/11 Memorial Tour mit NYPD First Responder
Beschreibung
Erleben Sie Ground Zero durch die Augen eines pensionierten NYPD-Ersthelfers, der am 11. September 2001 dort war. Diese private Wanderung bietet eine persönliche und respektvolle Perspektive auf einen der bedeutendsten Tage New Yorks. Unter der Leitung eines pensionierten NYPD-Offiziers und Ground Zero-Überlebenden erzählt die Erfahrung Geschichten aus erster Hand, persönliche Erinnerungen und die Realitäten, mit denen Ersthelfer während und nach den Angriffen konfrontiert sind. Ihr Fortgeschrittener wird Ihnen seltene Ground Zero-Fotos zeigen und Sie durch wichtige Orte rund um das World Trade Center führen, darunter Orte, die viele Besucher übersehen. Erfahren Sie mehr über die Rettungs- und Bergungsbemühungen, den Wiederaufbau von Lower Manhattan und die nachhaltigen Auswirkungen des 11. September. Die Tour beginnt an der St. Paul’s Chapel und führt weiter durch das 9/11 Memorial-Gebiet, einschließlich des Survivor Tree, des FDNY Ten House und anderer bedeutsamer Stätten, die mit dem 11. September verbunden sind. Dies ist mehr als eine Sightseeing-Tour – es ist eine persönliche Erfahrung, die von jemandem geführt wird, der sie durchlebt hat.

Reiseverlauf
Die St. Paul’s Chapel wurde 1766 als Öffentlichkeitsarbeit für die wachsende Gemeinde der Trinity Church eröffnet. Es war eine „Kapelle der Leichtigkeit“ für diejenigen, die nicht ein paar Blocks südlich entlang unbefestigter Straßen zur Dreifaltigkeit gehen wollten. Ein Jahrzehnt später zerstörte der Große Brand von 1776 die erste Trinity Church, aber St. Paul’s überlebte dank einer Eimerbrigade, die vom Hudson River bis zum Dach der Kapelle lief. Bis zum Wiederaufbau der zweiten Trinity Church im Jahr 1790 machten viele, darunter George Washington, St. Paul’s zu ihrer spirituellen Heimat. Am 30. April 1789, nachdem Washington den Amtseid geleistet hatte, der erste Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten zu werden, machte er sich auf den Weg von der Federal Hall an der Wall Street zur St. Paul’s Chapel, wo er Gottesdienste besuchte. Saint Paul’s spielte 911 eine entscheidende Rolle bei der Unterbringung von Ersthelfern und einem Ort der Familie, um ihre Lieben zu suchen
Überqueren Sie den Oculus am Ground Zero, dem ehemaligen Standort der World Trade Center Mall, einer der Routen, die von Überlebenden genutzt werden, um den eingestürzten Gebäuden über die U-Bahn zu entkommen. Hören Sie sich die Geschichten von Mut und Opfer an, um hunderte von Überlebenden zu evakuieren, die beim Einsturz des Nordturms gefangen waren. Beobachten Sie die versteckten architektonischen Details, die die Geschichte der Stätte erinnern, die die meisten Besucher vermissen.
Begeben Sie sich auf die Spuren von 911 Hero-Helden, die in den Tiefen des zerstörten Einkaufszentrums Westfield World Trade Center nach Überlebenden suchten.
North & South Tower Memorial Pools : Im Januar 2004 wurde der von Architekt Michael Arad und Landschaftsarchitekt Peter Walker eingereichte Entwurf Reflecting Absence als Siegerbeitrag ausgewählt. Ihr Entwurf sieht zwei Wasserfallbecken vor, die von Bronzebrüstungen umgeben sind, die die Namen der Opfer der Anschläge vom 11. September 1993 und des Bombenanschlags auf das World Trade Center auflisten. Die Pools befinden sich auf einem Platz, wo mehr als 400 Sumpfweißeichen wachsen.
Der Oculus ist das Herzstück des World Trade Center Transportation Hub. Nach 12 Jahren Bauzeit und ständigen Verzögerungen wurde es schließlich am 3. März 2016 für die Öffentlichkeit geöffnet. Das vom berühmten Spanischen Architekten Santiago Calatrava entworfene 4 Milliarden Dollar teure Gebäude übertraf die ursprüngliche Schätzung um 100%! Insgesamt ist das WTC Oculus 350 Fuß lang und misst etwa 75.000 Quadratmeter Verkaufsfläche. 180 Greenwich St, New York, NY 10006, USA
Wir enden bei FDNY Ladder 10 House

I really enjoyed the Mafia tour with Jay. It was very informative and interesting with lots of stops and snippets of history and storoes about the mob around NYC and also stories about her time with the NYPD. The tour started with a delicious meal of meatballs and spaghetti and ended with canoli pastries also delicious

Jay was our guide for this walking tour of NYPD history and the mafia history of NY. We started an early dinner at one of the oldest Italian restaurants in NYC, John’s @ 12th Street. The spaghetti with meatballs was excellent. The history of the restaurant very colorful. Very interesting local stories, historic events and Jay splashes in her own experiences as a LEO. Jay is engaging and very animated. Never a boring moment. We finished up the evening at Caffe’ Roma in Little Italy for one of the best pistachio canollis I’ve ever eaten.

We had an amazing tour with Dennis around all the sights related to 9/11. He was able to give an in depth personal experience about the day and the events that followed which was extremely insightful and emotional. There were many places we visited that aren’t known by many companies and Dennis was able to show us and explain their relation to 9/11. Overall can definitely recommend booking this tour!
