Rebuilding and Remembering in Lower Manhattan The latest batch of photographs documenting the transformation of the World Trade Center area over the past quarter century is a sobering reminder that change can be both profound and subtle.

One aspect that becomes immediately apparent upon viewing these photographs is just how much the neighborhood has changed in terms of physical presence.
