Dozens of residents, first responders, religious leaders and elected officials gathered in Sea Cliff on Sept. 11 to honor the men and women who lost their lives in the terror attacks on the World Trade Center and Pentagon over two decades ago.
Standing in front of the clock outside of the Children’s Library, which is set to the exact time the first plane hit the towers, speakers reflected on the loss of the nation’s innocence and remembered the tragedy of that fateful day.
