9/11 Memorials in NJ

As we continue cataloguing sites around the state I have stumbled into multiple resrouces on 9/11 memorials in the Garden State. Being directly across the river from New York, we were directly impacted in multiple ways and the monuments attempt to maintain that connection. An article in City Journal included a photo from the monument at Eagle Rock where the view of the towers used to be a prominent feature. New Jersey has plans online for the State's memorial in LIberty State Park. And pictures are popping up of the controversial sculptural element in Bayonne's.

And as an interesting resource, the Bergen Record has created an interactive map tool focusing on the memorials throughout North Jersey.
