F93Shanksville, Pennsylvania 2004. Project entry for the Flight 93 Memorial Competion. 37 chambers are organized around the crash site/burial ground for each of the victims of United Flight 93. These chambers are conceived as small family chapels to humanize the personal loss of the tragic event of 9-11. Each chapel is dedicated by family and friends with personal belongings and oral recordings that recount a personal story of the individual victims to visitors. Each family is given a key to access the burial ground through a pivoting door at one end of the memorial. Perennials cover the grounds that celebrate in its continual annual renewal of life, the living memory of the victims.
