September 11, 2005 Porte Contarine Gardens – Padova Memorial to the World Trade Center “The light of Liberty shines through the Book of History. This book is open to the memory of the heroes of September 11, 2001. In the left hand page, a dramatic beam salvaged from the World Trade Center attack is inscribed. The latitude of New York is connected to the center of Padova as the vertical hinge of the book. The book is delicately balanced between the historical buildings of Padova, the bridge, the waterway. This special place will glow day and night, and throughout the seasons of the year.” – Daniel Libeskind
