Beautiful Quotes
There's going to be a very large park there, much bigger than just the waterfront walkway, ... The garden is already there, so that helps. It was the site of the evacuation center and it has a perfect view of downtown Manhattan from that site. It will honor not those who died and those who worked there, but everyone who came off that ferry that day. It's a beautiful site for a lasting memorial.

Aided Quotes
We've been discussing this for quite a while, ... We were looking for the appropriate site and appropriate tribute, and we wanted to have it someplace along the waterfront. We wanted it there, not only as a tribute to the victims, but also in honor of all the rescue groups who aided more than 70,000 people who used the ferry as way of a safe exit from New York after the attacks. Those 70,000 people came through Weehawken that day and were aided by volunteers, police, fire, EMS workers. They received medical treatment in our triage centers. Some just needed to get cleaned up and receive water. We distributed water by the thousands that day.
