Those pictures are great. If anyone has a link to more please post them.
I heard that the lights draw 600,000 watts. I'd hate to see the electric bill!
Con Edison -- the Electric Company in NYC is donating all of the electricity for the 31 days that the memorial is lit.
The lights are not "on the site" of the old WTC, rather they are approx 2 blocks away -- a little more North. There are 2 banks of lights and if you get within a block of them...they are BRIGHT!.
A very interesting and emotional thing to do is to go to the base of the lights and look up. They seem to go on forever into the sky...just like the Towers did. :frowning:
