Sept. 11 Memorial unveiled at City Hall

Keval Amin was just an infant during the terror attacks of Sept. 11, 2001.

But the soon-to-be Eagle Scout chose to create an everlasting memorial recalling the tragic events of that day. On Monday, that memorial was revealed during a ceremony on the front lawn of City Hall.

 

“I was 6 months old when the terrorist attacks of 9/11 occurred,” Amin said, “My dad told me this was a sad day in the history of America. He told me that I watched the second tower go down while sitting on his lap. Ever since I became a Boy Scout and found out I have to do a service project for my Eagle rank, I wanted to build a 9/11 Memorial for those who died, those who served and those who carried on.”

Amin contacted the Port Authority of New York/ New Jersey and obtained a piece of the World Trade Center which sits on top of the memorial. The bottom of the monument, painted by Billie Bradford, features an American Flag.
