September 11th is a day that will remain in every American's mind forever. The country as a whole was, and still is devastated. The families of the victims have tried to heal, but have found that they never will. The American people look at the victim's as heroes, and it is time to build something in their memory. Ground Zero is a piece of history, and the government is seeing to it that it remains that way. They do not plan to cover up history; they plan to help everyone remember it in a positive way. There has been a lot of controversy over how a memorial should be incorporated into the design. There were many volunteers for the rebuilding job, but only one man will be lucky enough to fill the position. Although the families are against rebuilding, it has to be done eventually. So, the government is going to do what is best for the victim's families, the New York citizens, and the city of New York. The Government, along with the help of an architect, plans .
to incorporate the wants and needs of everyone into the design. .
Rebuilding Ground Zero is something that the victim's families do not want to hear. We all need to remember that the people who were taken on September 11th had families, who are still trying to get over their loss. The families think it would be completely immoral to take away the only place they can go to remember, because some people were able to bury their loved ones and some were not. The total number of people killed was 2,819, and the number of bodies found intact was 289. Therefore, there are 2,530 families who have not been able to bury their relatives. So, those families only have one place to go visit their loved ones, Ground Zero. The families are so set on not rebuilding, they are started to picket. There have been a number of people protesting in front of the gate leading to Ground Zero. They were carrying signs saying:" 3,000 people concreted this ground with their blood".
