June 16, 2011 - 03:38 pm
Artifacts from the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks will be installed at Freedom Park in Prince William County. It was announced Thursday at a press conference that the four rusted steel beams from the World Trade Center will be in Prince William County.
- Prince William County Board Chairman Corey Stewart called the artifacts
Prince William County Board Chairman Corey Stewart said that the county was one of 800 communities on a waiting list and some areas weren’t successful in getting any memorable pieces from the attacks. Twenty-two residents died that day, which was more than any other jurisdiction in the Washington, D.C. metro area.
Stewart told InsideNoVa that the sight of these artifacts are “gut-wrenching.” See for yourself:
