The time has come to remember heroes. To remember the men and women who bravely helped each other on September 11th 2001. Heroes like the New York Fire Department, the New York Police department, and the people inside in the buildings and on the street you didn't hear about.

The events of 9/11 have truly effected us all, but some feel as if there is still something to be said about how deeply they were touched by the bravery of the people who helped save their fellow man, and those souls who perished.

The Lower Manhattan Development Corporation is looking for artist like you to design a memorial that will be built on the ground where the World Trade Center formerly stood.
