WTC survivors to start guided tours of Ground Zero
Survivors of the World Trade Center attacks will start leading guided tours of the site for the Tribute Center, a project of the September 11th Widows and Victims' Families' Association. The tours will begin on weekends in October, with an official launch in November.
From Newsday: Ultimately, the center hopes to host two to four tours during the week and six to eight on weekends, using up to 150 tour guides, said Sally Yerkovich, the center's president. She said the tours will cost $10 for adults, $7.50 for children and seniors, with the money going toward the center's operation. On Friday, the New York Board of Trade opened a permanent memorial to the Sept. 11 attacks. It is located at the World Financial Center, just to the west of Ground Zero.
