The organization also sponsored the international design competition for the World Trade Center Memorial, which resulted in Michael Arabia and Patrick Walker's Reflecting Absence being chosen as the winning design in January 2004.

Famous quotes containing the words plan, memorial and/or design:

    If you insist on asking me why I feel the way I do, I plan to take the Fifth Amendment.
    Mason Cooley (b. 1927)

    When I received this [coronation] ring I solemnly bound myself in marriage to the realm; and it will be quite sufficient for the memorial of my name and for my glory, if, when I die, an inscription be engraved on a marble tomb, saying, “Here lieth Elizabeth, which reigned a virgin, and died a virgin.”
    Elizabeth I (1533–1603)

    You can make as good a design out of an American turkey as a Japanese out of his native stork.
    —For the State of Illinois, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
