The memorial was designed with an elevated square concrete base, upon which a 10-foot tall, 980 lb. I-beam from the World Trade Center wreckage was placed. Each side of the base incorporates a granite panel. Three of the sides represent the states affected by the tragedy: New York, Pennsylvania and Virginia. The fourth panel contains a dedication statement, which reads “Remembrance Memorial – Dedicated to the courage, strength and indomitable American spirit of those who perished and those who persevered during the events of September 11, 2001 – Lansing Remembers”.
