World Trade Family Centre moves to New York City
The Family Assistance Centre, a gathering place for relatives who lost loved ones in the World Trade Centre attack, will have a new home in New York from Monday.
The centre, providing services to family members, including counselling and job assistance after the September 11 attacks, was set up at Pier 94 on the Hudson River in the middle of Manhattan.
The new centre will be at a city-owned site in lower Manhattan but the city will maintain an impromptu memorial wall created outside the pier, comprising victims’ pictures, poems and other mementoes left by relatives.
