The “Freedom Stone” was once proclaimed to be “the bedrock of a new symbol of American strength and confidence.” This cornerstone, laid at the site of Ground Zero of the World Trade Center on July 4th, 2004 was two years later quietly removed from the site.
With the Freedom Tower now nearly complete, the cornerstone remains missing.
Politics, plunder, and emotional debate have haunted the building of The Freedom Tower and the development of the World Trade Center Ground Zero site.
“By laying this magnificent cornerstone, we are sending a message to people around the world.” They said: “This stone will remain a symbolic cornerstone for the rebuilding of New York and the nation.” NTC Mayor Michael Bloomberg
