It is a crying shame that no memorial has been erected. Let me guess, the cross is gone, right? And now, it appears, there will be a mosque built within shouting distance of this site. Yes, it is too bad that Mayor Rudy did not continue. I believe the memorial would have been built had New York had the type of leadership needed to erect a memorial.
Do you believe that the WTC will ever be rebuilt?

THE INSPIRATION FOR YET ANOTHER NEW GALLERY, SEPIA MASTERPIECES, IN MY OPINION...
Many people are not quite sure what sepia means when referring to photographic images. This photo, by Daniel Mennerich, defines the sepia photograph. It is not a black and white photo, it is not a color photo, it is not a photo-manipulated photo, it is, precisely, a photo that appears to be aged, like good whiskey, to a tone of hues and shades that makes the viewer say, "Man, that is really an historic shot."
It is a matter of taste; some photos look better when presented in a sepia format while others look better in color or black and white. Personally, considering the historic nature of the Flatiron Building, sepia is the right venue.
Thanks, Daniel, for the opportunity to write an essay about SEPIA and your photographic genius. This photo is one of my favorites.
A PERSONAL NOTE ABOUT THIS PHOTOGRAPH
What a joy it would be to have a studio apartment on the 4th or 7th floor.
