Doesn't take more than a generation for people to forget the horror of that day.

I saw that as well and was torn.   I wondered why it shutdown and now it appears to be simply funding.  That is not good, not with all the free money running around. 

However, as long as we are alive, we shall never, ever forget what happened that day and who was responsible.

I may be confused. But, isn’t this something different than the museum at Ground Zero ? And if so, has anybody been there ?

According to one article before COVID they were getting about 300 thousand visitors a year.

Yes, it’s another museum a couple blocks away.
