About:

The design is based on a drawing by Jason de la Bruyere, a college sophomore from the borough who was one of two winners of a town wide design contest. The memorial will be built at the pond next to the Red Barn in Crestwood Park. Officials hope to have it ready this fall, for the third anniversary of the terrorist attacks.
De La Bruyere's design will be incorporated into a site plan submitted by Emily Rohsler, a sixth- grader at the Brookside Avenue School. Her ideas include pavers in the shape of the Pentagon, two water spouts in the pond to represent the Twin Towers, and a granite bench in front of the memorial.
Emily, 11, worked on the project with her grandfather, Herman Rohsler. "I wanted something peaceful and calm, somewhere where residents can go and relax and maybe talk to friends and family," she said.
