Suggestions for Outdoors & Recreation near Financial District, New York

Noel C. • October 2, 2022No matter your politics. A lot of people died in a terrible event. As memorials go, this was very nice and had an eerie calm born from respect of the visitors. Worth coming here

Quintein • December 17, 2018I highly recommend visiting when there isn't a crowd (late night to 8am) to fully reflect. There is lots of security present and the area is under CCTV via the light posts

Jonathan B. • July 9, 2015My hotel room overlooks the 9/11 memorial. I worked in the Trade Center years ago and finally got up the courage to walk over. It's wonderful and everyone should visit it to remember and honor.

Shannon B. • August 21, 2020Very large park. The trees are shaped in a round, which is a special scenery. All the place is neat and tidy. It is green and lush.

ℳ𝒶𝓎♍ • July 13, 2020Fearless little girl she is, she stands mighty tall and embodies the courage, independence and unafraid attitude I wish all females embrace. I love her as a work of art and love her defiant expression
