Ground Zero-10 Years Later

Exhibition at Islamic Center-Ground Zero
Fair or Not the center is almost ready!

A temporary community space and Islamic community centre at the Ground Zero site has had its grand opening today. A photo exhibition will be the first public programme.
The rest of the Park Place building has yet to be renovated. The developer has said it will be years before the project, envisioned with a mosque, health club and theatre, is fully realised.
The photographs, by artist Danny Goldfield, are of children from around the world now living in New York.
Park51 chief Katerina Lucas says the exhibit aimed to show opponents of the Islamic centre what kind of space it was meant to be.
