City Center Security & City Center Management are hosting a tower climb in honor of those who lost their lives on September 11, 2001.
The World Trade Center Towers each consisted of 110 floors and 2071 steps. During the City Center climb, participants this year will climb 36 floors 3 times which is nearly the 110 floors of the World Trade Center. There will be various tributes to memorialize the fallen first responders including a local Pipe & Drum Band starting off the opening ceremony and playing Amazing Grace, a dedicated moment of silence recognizing the timeline that unfolded on September 11, 2001, and each of today’s heroes – our local first responders – will carry a name and photo of a hero who responded to the World Trade Centers.
The bells will continue to toll at marked times throughout the event and hold a moment of silence for the strike of each tower, the pentagon, the crash of flight 93 and collapse of both towers, as time permits.
Eventbrite registration opens June 1 at 8:00 am.
