This was my fourth visit, and it was fabulous. Nick, the manager at One Dine, was most helpful with our dinner reservation after our museum and observatory experience.

The 9/11 museum is very impactful. Pieces of the previous WTC structure helped me understand the size and strength of it. Timeline explained exactly what happened. Artifacts demonstrated the impact on real people. Some of the audio was shockingly moving. Interesting discussion on the aftermath for victims. Many angles of the attack are explored. There is no discussion of the terrorists, motivations, organizations, methods, planning, their history and relationship with the USA, etc. The view from One World Observatory is incredible. We watched the sunset. The elevator ride was fun. I almost wish it was a little slower so I could enjoy the great graphics more!
