Summary

Description

The plaque at The Sphere reads:

"For three decades, this sculpture stood in the plaza of the World Trade Center.

Entitled "The Sphere", it was conceived by artist Fritz Koenig as a symbol of world peace. It was damaged during the tragic events of September 11, 2001, but endures as an icon of hope and the indestructible spirit of this country.

The Sphere was place in Battery Park on March 11, 2002, as a temporary memorial to all who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center.

The eternal flame at The Sphere was ignited on September 11, 2002, in honor of all those who were lost. Their spirit and sacrifice will never be forgotten."
