As we approach the 10 year anniversary of September 11, 2001, many have forgotten about the buildings and memorials that were to be built at ground zero. Construction at One World Trade Center is finally making significant progress after years of debate and delays.

I’ve been following the progress at the WTC site off and on over the years. Glad to see positive progress — hopefully another ten years doesn’t have to pass before the site is finished.
