The memorial would be built on the Philadelphia side of the Ben Franklin Bridge, on a triangular DRPA-owned parcel at Sixth and Race, just north of the Constitution Center.
Proposed renderings show two symbolic towers – each 9 feet eleven inches tall – with a replica of the Liberty Bell hanging between them. DRPA CEO John Hanson says the memorial will contain authentic artifacts.
“There will be a piece of steel from the World Trade Center, a limestone granite block from the Pentagon, and loose soil and a rock from Shanksville, Pennsylvania,” Hanson said.
