Description:

On this exploratory tour of famous New York landmarks, admire the Gothic Revival architecture of the renowned Woolworth Building. Afterward, spend a moment of solemn reflection at the pools and falls of the National September 11 Memorial site.

Begin beneath the 792-foot (242-m) façade of the Woolworth Building. Completed in 1913, this skyscraping edifice was once the tallest building in the world. Enter the main lobby with an experienced guide and marvel at walls of reflective marble, terra cotta archways adorned with ornate sculptures, and massive, vaulted ceilings covered in brilliant mosaics. Snap a few photos before heading back out the brass-framed turnstile doors and onto Broadway’s bustling sidewalks.

Wander past the dignified columns of St. Paul’s Chapel and the gleaming glass of the Millennium Hilton on your way to the 9/11 Memorial, and stop for a moment to consider the sacrifices of the first responders at Engine 10 Ladder 10, a fire station that suffered heavy damage when the Twin Towers collapsed.

Arrive in the memorial’s shaded plaza to explore detailed exhibits that chronicle the tragic events of September 11th, 2001. While your guide shares information about memorial's construction, gaze at bronze plates that depict the names of victims who died in the attacks, and spend a final moment of silence near the hopeful branches of the Survivor Tree or at the gazing down into the rippling waterfalls of the tranquil reflection pools.
