Unique 9-11 project - 490 tape art figures in Manhattan

This project, stunning in its impact, was carried out by Michael Townsend -artist and son of a guy I used to work with. In his words: "This website, the Eleventh of September: an act of remembrance, is the cumulative result of 30,000 hours of volunteer effort, compiling five years of documentation and biographical information relating to the those who passed away and the journeys through New York City.
