A 9/11 Reflection This monument is in Jersey City, NJ., and lines up directly with the site of the former World Trade Center in New York. A misty, damp day framed this photo in a fog over the backdrop of the New York City skyline. It was captured one day after the 17th anniversary of the 9/11 tragedy which took place directly across the river. The two walls behind the actual piece of the World Trade Center list the names of the New Jersey residents killed that day. Photo taken Sept 12, 2018.
