New York, NY - May 29, 2018 (Tue) - The 9/11 Memorial Museum opened on the tenth anniversary of the attack that took nearly 3,000 lives in 2001. It now stands in the shadow of the enormous One World Trade Center.

The CCIP (www.fusia.net) exchange visitors gathered after their internships on Tuesday to visit the museum and learn more about the history of the fallen World Trade Center towers and the people who lost their lives. It was a solemn visit, but also a reminder of the resilience of the city that has become their temporary home.

“It’s hard to really grasp how terrible that attack was until you see the site in person,” CCIP exchange visitor, Jonathan Lam stated. “I will never completely understand it, but the museum gave me more perspective.”

Jonathan, along with Natali Ghui, helped coordinate the activity, which involved going early to attain tickets for the whole group. Both Jonathan and Natali are currently interning with FUSIA Communications, which oversees the internship program.

After visiting the museum, many of the visitors continued the evening by going up to the One World Observatory, which is on the 100-102 floors of the trade center.

“Visiting the museum and then going up to the observatory and seeing that view,” Natali said, “It was a reminder of the amazing things that can be done when people come together.”
