Remembrance and Rebirth

Prospect & Eagle Rock Aves.
West Orange, NJ 07052

Website

Overview
Located on the lookout at Eagle Rock Reservation in West Orange, this memorial features multiple elements that pay tribute to the victims of 9/11. A central sculpture of an eagle with its wings spread appears to be flying away from New York City. The eagle rises from a sculpture of an open book that is engraved with the names of all Essex County residents who perished in the attacks. Other sculptural elements include a bronze replica of a firefighter's helmet and a police officer's hat, a girl holding flowers and a teddy bear, and a boy holding a lantern and gazing in the direction of New York City.
