Indiana 9/11 Memorial

While in Indiana we were able to visit the Indiana 9/11 Memorial. It is located at 421 West Ohio Street in downtown Indianapolis and is dedicated to those killed in the September 11th attacks.

It consists of two 11,000-pound beams from the Twin Towers. Behind the beams stand a pair of six-foot-tall black granite walls inscribed with remembrances of the events in New York City; Washington, D.C.; and Shanksville, Pennsylvania. Perched atop one of the beams is a bronze, life-size sculpture of an American bald eagle, with wings outstretched and gazing east toward New York City.

It was quite impressive and so glad we accidentally stumbled across it while exploring the area.
