911 Eternal Flame - New York City, NY - 9/11 Memorial Sites on Waymarking.com

The flame is located in New York's Battery Park. The plaque reads:

"For three decades, this sculpture stood in the plaza of the World Trade Center. Entitled "The Sphere," it was conceived by artist Fritz Koenig as a symbol of world peace. It was damaged during the tragic evenets of September 11, 2001, but endures as an icon of hope and the indestructible spirit of this country. The Sphere was placed here on March 11, 2002 as a temporary memorial to all who lost their lives in the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center.
The eternal flame was ignited September 11, 2002 in honor of all those who were lost. Their spirit and sacrifice will never be forgotten."
