Boucher] Last updated by: Date Completed: [2003] [M. O’Connor] [Mar. 2008] Hofstra University Special Collections Long Island Studies Institute September 11 Project Collection Historical Note / Series Description On September 11, 2001, terrorists attacked the United States by hijacking planes and crashing them into the World Trade Center and the Pentagon. A third plane was hijacked but the passengers revolted against the terrorists and the plane crashed in Pennsylvania before it could reach its target. The World Trade Center is 30 miles west of Nassau County. Many Long Island residents worked in the World Trade Center's Twin Towers and the surrounding area known as the Financial District. New York City Firefighters and New York City Police Officers who rushed to the scene were from Long Island. Long Island residents who worked as fire fighters, police officers, MTA workers and construction workers went back to downtown Manhattan day after day to sift through the rubble. The personal accounts of some of these workers are a unique part of our collection. Individuals, trade unions, government agencies and health care workers from Long Island rushed to the aid of the wounded city. This collection records their actions with documents, photos and personal accounts. In the suburbs, workers took a break from the recovery efforts downtown only to wake up the next day and ride back to the city to continue cleaning up the aftermath. Businesses on Long Island donated money and supplies to the relief effort and to charities that helped the victims' families. The collection holds documentation of the efforts of these rescue and recovery workers and businesses. However, it was not only the rescue and recovery workers who dedicated themselves to helping New York City; even elementary school students held fundraisers for the relief funds and sent cards and letters of encouragement to the workers in lower Manhattan— their stories can be found in this collection as well. All over Long Island memorial services were held for those who were lost or died on September 11th. The lists of missing and lost are included in the collection, with the names of Long Island residents highlighted. Religious institutions worked overtime to plan funerals and to provide counseling and community outreach to all of the people who experienced different degrees of sadness, fear and confusion. The community service of religious institutions is documented herein as well. Similarly, parents and teachers helped children to understand what had happened. Methods used by the adults and the words and images of the children of Long Island are included in this collection. Even the entertainment industry was touched by these events, as is evident in the sports folders included in this collection and the newspaper comic pages in the days, weeks and months after September 11th. The correspondence and published writings included in the September 11th Project collection reflect the thoughts of Long Island residents as they contemplated the terrorist attacks on the United States and the subsequent war on terrorism. Nonprofit organizations like libraries, museums and historical societies attempted to collect and disseminate information. They were instrumental in putting events in context for people who sought and continue to seek a better understanding of how the nation and world changed as a result. In local, regional and national publications, journalists tried to keep up with a world that had been changed in an instant and continued to change. Visual artists, poets and photographers tried to capture the many experiences and emotions that ran through the people of Long Island, New York, and the Nation. The collection includes artifacts such as hardhats, gloves, respirators, boots, a pickax and a hoe used by Long Island residents who worked in the recovery effort on the 11th and in the days and weeks following the attacks. One of the banners that hung at the WTC site to encourage the rescue/recovery workers is emblazoned with the word “TEAMWORK” and a biblical quote. The Hofstra community’s reaction is embodied in the small objects including a candle and paper holder from Candlelight Vigil. The Hofstra University Archives Long Island Studies Institute September 11th Project collection contains materials that show how the terrorist attack on the World Trade Center affected the people of Long Island. Development of the collection is ongoing and researchers have used the collection since its creation. A part of the Hofstra University web page has provided an overview of the collection. Printouts document the web page in the folder “Hofstra—The September 11th Project." The web page is an indispensable tool for introducing the September 11th Project's attempts to collect and make available details of the human experience of history. This collection is a result of that process. Hofstra University Special Collections Long Island Studies Institute September 11 Project Collection Scope & Content Note The September 11 Project collection, which is composed of material created by Long Island residents, consists mainly of records of September 2001 and the following months. Strong areas of the collection include email documents, photographs and artifacts produced by or related to the events of September 11 and the recovery effort. The collection includes correspondence (traditional letters and email), analog and digital photos, and artifacts. Some items were originally produced for limited distribution such as the flyers, booklets, notices, computer files, audio and video materials. A video of oral history interviews is included as are photographs of September 11th memorials by photographer Robert L. Harrison. Many items from the collection were used in exhibitions in September – November 2002 and in 2006. The exhibition catalogs are included with the collection.

In New York City, zoning laws restrict the shape, height, or volume of a building and describe the functions for buildings. At the turn of the century, Wall Street was the center of business life in New York City. Over time, bigger buildings replaced smaller ones, as more space was needed for banks and businesses. As the value of property in Lower Manhattan grew, skyscrapers created more interior space on less land. These grand buildings represent the wealth of the city’s businesses and new places of work.

The messages written on a postcard can also give clues about life in that time period. These three views show how the Wall Street neighborhood changed at the turn of the 20th century. Over 17 years, Trinity Church, the brown building with the pointed steeple, is the only landmark that remained unchanged, although it became dwarfed by taller buildings. A good example of this rapid change can be found in these three postcards, comparing the right side of the street.

  • Symbolism and the City: from Towers of Power to 'Ground Zero'
    Prairie Perspectives: Geographical Essays (Vol: 15) Symbolism and the city: From towers of power to ‘Ground Zero’ Robert Patrick University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, SK Canada Amy MacDonald University of Alberta, Edmonton, AB Canada Abstract This paper explores the symbolism of New York City’s World Trade Center (WTC) before and after the devastating attack of September 11, 2001. The many metaphors captured in the built space of the WTC site are interrogated from ‘Ground Zero’ to the symbolic significance of the new ‘Freedom Tower’ now nearing completion (2014). In fulfilling the intended symbolism of American economic power, the WTC towers became pop-culture symbols of New York City, and the Unit- ed States. The WTC towers stood as twin icons of western economic dominance along with ‘Wall Street’ and ‘Dow Jones’ reflecting the American ethos of freedom and opportunity. However, the WTC also imbued negative, albeit unintended, symbolism such as the coldness of modernist architecture, social class disparities across urban America, and global domina- tion. Plans for redeveloping the WTC site predominantly highlight the intended positive symbolic connotations of the for- mer Twin Towers, including freedom and opportunity. This article points to the symbolic significance of urban built form and the potential negative consequences that are associated with iconic structures, including the new Freedom Tower. Keywords: symbolism, iconic architecture, New York City, World Trade Center Introduction tions leading to positive and negative actions of individuals and On September 11, 2001 a terrorist attack of horrific propor- groups.

  • The Tangible and Intangible Afterlife of Architectural Heritage Destroyed by Acts of War
    REBUILDING TO REMEMBER, REBUILDING TO FORGET: THE TANGIBLE AND INTANGIBLE AFTERLIFE OF ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE DESTROYED BY ACTS OF WAR by LAUREN J. KANE A thesis submitted to the Graduate School-New Brunswick Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Graduate Program in Art History, Cultural Heritage and Preservation Studies written under the direction of Dr. Tod Marder and approved by ________________________ ________________________ ________________________ New Brunswick, New Jersey May, 2011 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Rebuilding to Remember, Rebuilding to Forget: The Tangible and Intangible Afterlife of Architectural Heritage Destroyed by Acts of War by LAUREN J. KANE Thesis Director: Dr. Tod Marder Aggressors have often attacked sites of valued architectural heritage, believing such destruction will demoralize the targeted nation’s people and irreversibly shake the foundations of the marginalized culture. Of architectural structures that have been specifically targeted and fell victim to enemy attacks over the past decades however, many have been rebuilt in some capacity. This study considers the cases of Old Town Warsaw, the Stari Most in Mostar, and the former World Trade Center site in New York City to understand the ways in which local citizens engaged with the monuments tangible presence and intangible spirit prior to acts of aggression, during the monuments’ physical destruction, and throughout the process of rebuilding. From this analysis, it is concluded that while the rebuilding of valued sites of architectural heritage often reaffirms a culture’s resilience, there is no universal way to deal with the aftermath of the destruction of built heritage.

Less than one percent of the steel artifacts collected from the WTC site was reconfigured as sacred relics and became the focal elements of local memorials, while the rest was sold and recycled as scrap. Based on ten months of fieldwork at such local memorials primarily in the Northeastern United States, the study documents the artifacts’ memorialization, and discusses the socio-cultural factors involved in their transformation from rubble to sacred relics.

  • An Alphabet of Disaster: 9/11 from a to Z
    Streetnotes (2019) 26: 163-176 163 ISSN: 2159-2926 An Alphabet of Disaster: 9/11 from A to Z Blagovesta Momchedjikova Abstract This is a postcard performance project about the Twin Towers, language, and memory. Momchedjikova, Blagovesta. “An Alphabet of Disaster”. http://escholarship.org/uc/ucdavislibrary_streetnotes Streetnotes (2019) 26: 163-176 164 ISSN: 2159-2926 On 9/11, New York City lost not only hundreds of lives, loves, and hopes but also its beloved Twin Towers postcard skyline. The city was severely wounded as was its famed representation. What is in a skyline? Buildings that stand out with their unique architecture and function; landmarks that speak to the feat of the imagination and labor; icons that serve their original purpose doubled with representing a place, making it easily recognizable; symbols of ingenuity, progress, and prosperity. To locals and tourists alike, the Twin Towers were not only grandiose and pretty but also dependable: as the tallest structures in the metropolis, on the Southern tip of Manhattan, they were the perfect NYC compass. “Do you see the Towers?” my friend Susu asked me the very first time I, a newcomer to the city, wanted to visit her in her SoHo apartment. “Just walk towards them,” she said. They helped us orient ourselves and others, putting a spring in our daily step: we could tell where South was, and subsequently, all other directions, thanks to them. Rain or shine, they were always there, and they worked without fail. The longer I stayed in the city, the more I got to know the Towers and learned valuable tips for experiencing them: if you lay down at one particular location at their foot, you could take someone’s picture with the Towers converging above the head, like I did with my cousin Peter.
