"Double Check
by
J. Seward Johnson
The "everyman" businessman prescence in Liberty Park who,
before, had faded into the background amongst his
human brethren, has been called "the survivor." He was
lifted, battered yet whole, from the dust and rubble after the
September 11, 2001 tragedy.
Liberty park was since rebuilt, and this bronze man sits
again in his original site, bearing scratches and bruises
he sustained that day as a poignant reminder of
hope and endurance for us all.
