Hudson Square in Manhattan in New York County, New York — The American Northeast (Mid-Atlantic)
9/11 Memorial
SEIU Local 32BJ
The September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center claimed more than 2,800 lives, including 24 beloved brothers and sisters of Local 32BJ, Service Employees International Union. Those who died, like their fellow union members, strived to build better lives for themselves and their families. On the anniversary of their sacrifice, we pay tribute to them for the grace and dignity they brought to their work, and for their courage in the face of death.
We will remember them always.

Regarding 9/11 Memorial. This marker originally consisted of four glass panels near the entrance to the SEIU Local 32BJ headquarters building at 101 Sixth Avenue. After the building was sold, the union moved to much smaller quarters at 25 West 16th Street. With no suitable outdoor location, the memorial was installed in the building lobby, keeping the two engraved panels and eliminating the two blank ones.
The 101 Sixth Avenue building is listed in the "AIA (American Institute of Architects) Guide to New York City, Fifth Edition".
