Ground Zero Museum Workshop:
Tips and Discount Options
The Ground Zero Museum Workshop is a museum that showcases approximately 100 audio clips and hundreds of photographs taken by the official Ground Zero Photographer, Gary Marlon Suson. Gary Marlon Suson was the only person authorized by the Uniformed Firefighters Association and the city firefighters' main union to be present and take photographs of the recovery. In addition, you will see articles and artifacts found at the site include a piece of the American Airlines plane. Upon entering the museum, you will watch an introductory video for about 15 minutes.
