Sad but not unexpected for the craphole NYC has become. Fund illegals, protect criminals, let the former mayor's wife waste $850 million which can't be accounted for- but let something like this fall by the wayside.

This should have closed right after democrats in this country surrendered to the terrorists and voted for Barack Obama. That would be in 2008,

Obviously, the 9/11 memorial museum is no longer a worthy cause, because the people of short memory have lapsed back into their passive ways, once they get into positions of power.

Perpetual memorials have lost all charm for the miseducated and uneducated generations coming up.

As we lose our history, we also lose whatever shreds of honor and glory once attached to that history.

You mean there are not enough wealthy people left in NYC to hold a fundraiser? I guess the lack of people wanting to put their life on the line just to visit the once thriving metropolis has impacted the economy. What a shame. When Rudy was there people loved to visit.

I did not agree with Bloomberg on his idea about the museum/memorial at the start - he was not in favor of it. I think some memorial is needed. But Bloomberg seems to have been right that time would diminish its popularity. He considered it as a bad reminder of the gore, and thought people “ought to get past it”. He lacked empathy about lots of things - a true drone tehnocrat.

Maybe the “museum” and “teaching” mission made the whole thing too elitist intellectual, and a less lavish mere memorial, if done well, would have been (and may yet be) enough.

I went there a few years ago. There was a series of walkways that took you through some of the rubble. I thought it was for the most part, well done, as a tribute.

After the tour, we stopped at nearby O'Hara's Pub in which every wall was covered with patches of all the fire departments that responded to 9/11 in some way. They came from all over the country.

Years back would go to Yankee games (Bronx) with the kids. Today, I wouldn’t step inside any part of NYC. Lawlessness rules on the street & it’s government.

My wife and I combined knew 9 people killed at the World Trade Center that day.

This is a loss.

I've visited Ground Zero a number of times...from the time when it was a 10 million ton pile of rubble to visiting the Observation Deck of the new tower. I even got to talk briefly to a couple of the firemen at the small station right across the street from where the towers were.

I didn't even know that that museum existed...if I had I would have visited more than once.

Muslims will buy it and turn it into a Mosque.

Nobody wants to visit NYC, whether it’s DeBlasio or this new punk mayor neither has controlled crime and has mismanaged the entire covid restrictions.

Blame your mayor, they are ruining the big apple and turning it into the rotten apple.

Special thanks to Gov. Nipplepin Venthoarder for locking down NY.

Was it a “woke” memorial?

They are hell bent to destroy any respect for our nation.

I’m certain this will be celebrated in Democrat circles.

It’ll make more money as an illegal immigrant shelter.
