Postcards on Staten Island

Borough officials host an annual ceremony at the Staten Island Postcards Memorial on the North Shore Waterfront Esplanade. Built in 2004, the memorial honors the borough’s 274 residents who lost their lives on 9/11, as well as 47-year-old Stephen Knapp, who died in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Support family members and local officials (including Mayor Bloomberg) as they read the names of all Staten Islanders who perished in the attacks, then stay for one of the city’s best views of the Tribute in Light. Staten Island Postcards Memorial, 141 Richmond Terr between Hamilton Ave and Stuyvesant Pl, Staten Island.
