The 9/11 Memorial Glade recognizes the courage, selflessness, and perseverance of the men and women of the rescue and recovery effort. The Glade’s design includes a pathway flanked by six large stone monoliths, ranging from 13 to 18 tons, that are inlaid with World Trade Center steel accompanied by an inscription at either end of the pathway. Their design incorporates steel from the original World Trade Center site.
