National September 11 Memorial & Museum
World Trade Center site - note that the term 'Ground Zero' is never used by New Yorkers
On the site of the former World Trade Center towers, the memorial consists of two enormous waterfalls and reflecting pools set within the footprints of the twin towers, lined with bronze panels with the names of the nearly 3,000 victims of that fateful day inscribed. The surrounding plaza holds a grove of trees. The museum, which sits underground right next to the memorial, contains exhibits which explain the events of 9/11 and their aftermath, with remnants of the original towers and artifacts from that day. If you see a white rose on one of the names, it's because today is that victim's birthday.
Memorial: 8AM-8PM daily; museum: W-M and some Tu:9AM-7PM; last museum entry 5:30PMMemorial: free; Museum: adult $36, senior or 13-17 or US college student $30, 7-12 $24, child 6 and under or military/veteran free; free admission Monday evenings after 5PM

One World Trade Center
The One World Trade Center skyscraper rises 1,776 feet above the street and is the tallest building in the United States (and for that matter, the Western Hemisphere). Despite its colossal size, its simple design allows it to blend remarkably well into the Lower Manhattan skyline. An observation deck on the top floors offers 360-degree views of the city.
