In the aftermath of 9/11, sports teams in New York and around the country supported a grieving nation, brought us together to heal, and helped us cheer again. Yesterday, we were honored to welcome the @Giants to the 9/11 Memorial & Museum for a special visit, where players and staff, some too young to remember September 11, 2001, paid tribute to those killed and learned from the stories shared in the Museum.
An American flag flown over the Memorial was presented to Coach John Harbaugh in remembrance and as an enduring symbol of unity. 25 years later, the Giants’ visit affirms our promise to never forget all those killed, honor the courage shown in the face of tragedy, and preserve the stories of compassion and service for future generations.

This morning, we hosted the commemoration of the 24th anniversary of the formal end of rescue and recovery operations at Ground Zero. Led by ceremonial units from the @FDNY, @NYPDnews, @NYCSanitation, @jointheboldest, and @panynj, @TWULocal100, community members gathered to recognize those who worked tirelessly at the World Trade Center site in the days, weeks, and months after the attacks. We also honored those who are suffering or have died from illnesses or injuries related to their work there.
Guests heard remarks from New York City Council Member Julie Menin, a member of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum Board of Trustees, and John Paluska, a retired U.S. Army Green Beret and co-founder of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum Visionary Network, who took part in rescue, recovery, and relief efforts at Ground Zero.
Beth Hillman, #911Museum President and CEO, recognized the extraordinary nine-month effort involving thousands of people, including workers from New York City departments such as Design & Construction, Sanitation, Correction, Buildings, and Parks; the Office of Chief Medical Examiner; and the Transit Workers Union. Hillman also acknowledged organizations like the Red Cross and the Salvation Army, along with hundreds of skilled tradespeople—ironworkers, boilermakers, electricians, teamsters, engineers, sheet metal workers, carpenters, and laborers—as well as the U.S. National Guard, military personnel, and many others.

Elizabeth Cascio, a retired FDNY EMT, was a first responder during both the 1993 World Trade Center Bombing and the 9/11 attacks. In the aftermath of 9/11, she played a crucial role in the rescue and recovery efforts at Ground Zero. By October 2001, she developed a chronic cough, which was later linked to the toxic dust exposure at Ground Zero. In 2019, Cascio was diagnosed with invasive cervical cancer, a condition connected to her time spent on the pile.
This May 30 marks the 24th anniversary of the formal end of recovery operations at Ground Zero. Join us as we honor the courage and sacrifice of 9/11 rescue, recovery, and relief workers like Cascio, commemorate those lost to 9/11-related illnesses and injuries, and recognize the strength of survivors and the downtown community during a special commemorative ceremony.

Brian Smith, an FDNY Battalion 31 emergency medical specialist, was finishing a shift at his unit’s firehouse in Brooklyn on the morning of 9/11. As he left the station, he witnessed hijacked Flight 11 strike the North Tower. Smith deployed to the site, where he helped establish a triage center at a firehouse located on Liberty Street, one block south of the World Trade Center. While gathering supplies nearby, Smith heard the South Tower buckling. He raced back to the firehouse and was thrown in the air as the tower collapsed. Smith recovered and turned to help the injured. When the North Tower fell, he was forced to interrupt his rescue efforts and shelter in the firehouse.
Later in the day, after surviving both collapses, Smith was admitted to a Brooklyn hospital for multiple injuries. After being discharged from the hospital, he returned home and placed all the dust-covered clothing he was wearing into plastic bags for storage. At the time, he sensed the importance of retaining this eyewitness material for the future. He later donated his clothing and boots to the 9/11 Museum.
Smith served at Ground Zero during the recovery period searching for the remains of victims, including his father, FDNY Hazmat Company 1 Firefighter Kevin Joseph Smith.
Santa Clara, California native Nicole Miller lived in San Jose. She studied nutrition and physical therapy at West Valley College while teaching aerobics. On September 10, stormy weather prevented Miller from returning home after supporting a friend visiting the East Coast and a side trip to New York City and the New Jersey shore. She was rebooked on the next day’s Flight 93. Miller was 21 years old. #911Museum #NeverForget911
After responding to the World Trade Center on the morning of 9/11, paramedic Freddie Noboa aided in the rescue and recovery for more than two weeks. Within a year, his health began a steep decline. By 2008, Noboa believed he had "transformed from a healthy man to an old man," taking 23 different medications at any given time.
Noboa created this protest sign filled with empty prescription bottles and used it while advocating at public rallies for the passage of the James Zadroga 9/11 Health and Compensation Act.
On May 30, we’ll mark the 24th anniversary of the formal end of recovery operations at Ground Zero. Join us as we honor the courage and sacrifice of 9/11 rescue, recovery, and relief workers like Noboa, commemorate those lost to 9/11-related illnesses and injuries, and recognize the strength of survivors and the downtown community during a special ceremony.
