Flight 93 Memorial

<p>Flight 93 Memorial is dedicated to the passengers and crew members aboard the United Airlines Flight 93 on September 11, 2001. The flight was making its way to the Bay Area when it was hijacked by terrorists. The memorial is made up of 40 engraved stones with the names, ages and hometowns of the 33 passengers and 7 crew members on the flight.</p> <p>The stones lead to the "Circle of Remembrance" which includes three 10-foot engraved stones that tell the story of Flight 93, and list the names of those who have contributed to the memorial. At the opposite end is the "Plaza of Hope" which includes a flagpole surrounded by tiles painted with inspirational images and words created by Union City students. Much of the material and services were made possible by the local community, as well as communities outside of Union City.</p> <p> </p>
