School children made tiles to thank the people who came to help.
There's a bucket of chalk and people can come leave messages for their lost loved ones.
This tree survived the blast and is called the Survivors Tree.
There's a chair for every person who died. The bases are made of glass with a name etched on the front. At night they light up. Many of them had pine cones placed on them. And all the trees you see--these are large pine trees. Not planted there--but huge fully grown trees place here. It's quite lovely.
This is part of one the original building's walls--left to show the the extent of the damage.
Keepsakes left in memory of those who died.

My brother had a meeting in that building that morning. He would have been there when the bomb went off, but his son was having a minor crisis he had to handle first. Many people he knew died that day.
Horrible tragedy.
