As days pass since the World Trade Center attack, hope fades for survivors beneath the rubble. Bellevue Hospital treats six, a wall of prayer grows at the scene, and officials warn recovery odds decline without water and oxygen.
Following the World Trade Center attacks, 11 New York museums and galleries offered free access as sanctuaries for comfort. Participating venues include the Museum of Modern Art, Solomon R. Guggenheim Foundation, Whitney Museum, Frick Collection, Jewish Museum, Morgan Library, Cooper-Hewitt, Dia Center for the Arts, International Center of Photography, Asia Society and Museum, and Japan Society Gallery. The Met and Brooklyn Museum did not join the list due to security concerns.
In Washington, crowds prayed and sought healing while the White House and nearby landmarks remained largely inaccessible. A expanded security zone restricted tours and Capitol visits, with streets blocked and Humvees patrolling. Night brought a shrinking perimeter and day to day access decisions. Community members gathered for vigils and services at Washington National Cathedral as officials pledged vigilance against further attacks. Congress members and former presidents attended a prayer service with President Bush. The Corcoran Gallery remained inside the zone but access was limited to government ID holders at Lafayette Park.
Thousands gathered at the Pentagon on Saturday to mourn, pray, and photograph the devastation as recovery workers probed the wreckage for bodies. Relatives of presumed victims arrived in buses, many placing flowers and notes at Arlington National Cemetery. officials announced a costly rebuild while investigators pursued leads into the hijackings.
