Salt Lake – two acres of large U.S. flags will be placed on display in the Healing Field in remembrance of U.S. Patriots.

New York - At sunset, the famous "Tribute in Light,” comprised of 44 7,000-watt xenon light bulbs, arranged into two 48-foot squares inspired by the shape and orientation of the Twin Towers, will shoot four miles into the sky with a visibility as far as 30 miles away.

White House – President Obama will observe a moment of silence at 8:46a and take part in The National Day of Service and Remembrance developed by 9/11 families and established into law by the Edward M. Kennedy Serve America Act, which he signed in April 2009.
