Beverly Hills 9/11 Memorial Garden Dedication




I woke up this morning and decided to go on a bike ride to check out the dedication of the Beverly Hills 9/11 Memorial Garden.

A group of volunteers got together to create this tribute to everyone who died on 9/11. From their website:

The Beverly Hills Memorial Garden will display the steel artifact from the World Trade Center Site secured from a pedestal.  It is 196”L x 66”W x 51”H and weighs approximately 1,800 pounds.  Adjacent to the monument, a flagpole will fly our Nation’s Colors and a walking path will traverse the memorial site.  Twin Tower replicas, the Pentagon and the field near Shanksville, Pennsylvania will all be represented to honor those who perished.  Benches will be aesthetically placed, allowing visitors to view the memorial while contemplating the meaning and magnitude symbolized throughout The Beverly Hills 9/11 Memorial Garden.
