Images & Artifacts from the Recovery Tour

A 'Must-See' Museum before visiting Ground Zero and known worldwide as the "Biggest LITTLE Museum in New York", this is a 5-star rated tour in NYC and the "3rd Most Popular Attraction in New York" according to TripAdvisor.com.

View artifacts and the Stunning Images of Official Ground Zero Photographer Gary Marlon Suson. Called "Rare Photos" by the New York Times, daily 2-hour tours leave visitors with a front-lines look at the special people and stories from the Ground Zero Recovery. This non-graphic, kid-friendly museum stays away from the day of 9/11and focuses more on the 8 month "Recovery" that followed, when cameras were not permitted.

Tours include an introductory narration & history by your own tour guide, a 12-minute film on large screen/surround sound, interactive walk-through of artifacts and finally the self-guided audio experience, which contains 100 stories behind each image and artifact! Ground Zero Museum Workshop is commonly reviewed by its guests as the "Best Part of our NYC Trip." The tiny Museum was inspired by Mr. Suson's visit to the Anne Frank House in Amsterdam, Holland.

Gift shop on premise sells books, posters & mini-prints. On display & explained in detail are Honor Guard Ceremony images, the "Frozen Clock" image and the well-known "Genesis 11: Tower of Babylon" charred Bible page image. Images in the collection have been featured Worldwide on CNN, BBC, FOX, SKY, GETAWAY (AU), NATIONAL GEOGRAPHIC, ASSOCIATED PRESS, ABC and NBC. Closed Wednesdays.

Audio tours programmed in French, Italian, English and Spanish. Limit 25 guests per tour, so reserve well in advance to secure your spot as this tour often sells out in advance. Located in Manhattan's Historic "Meat-Packing District," about 8 minutes by subway from the actual WTC site. This is a small volume museum in an intimate, quiet atmosphere that is unlike any tour experience in New York City.

All bags/purses must be checked due to space & security concerns. Wheelchair accessible.
