"Postcards" is a sculpture in Staten Island that was made in 2004. It's near the water and faces New York Harbor. The sculpture is a tribute to the people who died in the September 11th attacks on the World Trade Center. There's also a second memorial next to it that honors the first responders who helped during the attacks. Each person from Staten Island who died is remembered on the memorial. It has their name, a profile, and some information about them. For many families, this memorial is important because it's where they can go to remember their loved ones who are no longer with them. Is there some place that you go to remember your loved ones who are no longer with us?
