“The Survivors’ Staircase was the final above-ground remnant of the original World Trade Center. Once consisting of two granite stairways and an escalator connecting Vesey Street to Austin J. Tobin Plaza, it became a vital escape route on September 11, 2001. Hundreds fled down these steps from 5 World Trade Center as tragedy unfolded. Today, the staircase is preserved at the National September 11 Memorial & Museum — standing as a lasting symbol of survival and hope.” #fblifestyle #neverforget
