This is not for us just a piece of steel
Nine years after the terorist attacks toppled the Twin Towers, the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, which own the Ground Zero site, is shipping the roughly one- foot square pieces to towns, schools, police and fire departments to use as their own memorials to the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil.
"This is not for us just a piece of steel," said Bill Baroni, Deputy Executive Director for the Port Authority, at a ceremony in Monroe Township, N.J. just three days before the ninth anniversary of the attack.
Among those at the Monroe ceremony was Wendy Feinberg-Kotula, who lost her husband Alan Feinberg when his FDNY fire company(Engine 54) was among the first responders that morning.
