Endurance Memorial
- Stuart D. Gosswein Washington, D.C.

"My design is limited to the memorial only: a 20-story glass fountain with design elements that symbolically memorialize the terrorist attacks at the World Trade Center, Pentagon, and Pennsylvania.

Water will flow down the sides of the twin towers, collect in a suspended pentagon-shaped pool, and then drop to a lower pool through 3,000 holes (each dedicated to a victim).

The fountain will sit in a large circular, tree-lined plaza (Pennsylvania). The plaza will include five glass walls on which are inscribed the victims’ names.

Observations decks will be inside the towers and, at night, a blue laser from each tower will be seen from great distances.

An object of beauty and reflection, the structure will be a fitting centerpiece to this sacred site, now and for future generations."
