Create an itinerary including World Trade Center's Liberty Park
At World Trade Center's Liberty Park, relax, reflect, and recharge in the midst of Manhattan's bustling downtown. Inspired by the iconic High Line, the park overlooks the National September 11 Memorial and Museum. Three stairways, a ramp from Greenwich Street and a pedestrian bridge lead into the park. The park's most memorable feature is the 6.1 m (20 ft) tall "living wall" made from periwinkle, Japanese spurge, winter creeper, sedge, and Baltic ivy. See the iconic Sphere, a bronze sculpture that survived the September 11 attacks, and the rebuilt Greek Orthodox Church that did not share the same fate. Notice the names of those who perished in 2001 terrorist attack engraved on the edge of the fountain. To plan New York City vacation without wasting time, ask Inspirock to design an itinerary.

  • We visited here in December 2021. The views of the statue, Jersey and NYC are amazing! Beautiful sunset over the water. Park was clean, people were at the playground. There was even a family barbecuing there. Had a great time. Place was clean too! Traffic getting to and from our hotel in Long Island....well, that's another story!
  • Come sit and resonate on the tragedy of evil humans and remember the brave souls that gave their all for the freedom we now enjoy. Its a great place to come and ponder on how as a country we progressed and digressed. A trip to NYC is incomplete without a visit here.
