a Sept. 11, 2010: The Right Way to Remember
a Still on Duty at Ground Zero, the Indomitable Nurse Reggi
a Building a life around a hole in the heart
a Among 9/11 Families, a Last Holdout Remains

I also caught this video on msnbc.com. Pretty cool. ... The New York Times also has interactive maps detailing the project.
