9/11 Memorial Grove


9/11 Memorial Grove

The Fairfax County Memorial Grove was the first U.S. memorial commemorating the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001, to be built on public space involving federal and local government collaboration with the community in an area where residents were personally affected by the tragedy through loss of life or participation in rescue efforts. It was designed by National Park Service landscape architect and Fairfax County Tree Commissioner Michael McMahon. The Memorial Grove is located on the grounds of the Fairfax County Government Center. (Read more about symbolism of grove)
