Overlooking the memorial plaques and area where most tourists and onlookers from around the world visit when they want to see the emptiness that is now Ground Zero and the WTC site, As well as pay their respects.
Conceived by artist Glen E. Friedman to let people of the world know that New Yorkers, who live so close to the actual destruction of 9/11/01, do not agree with the War on Terror being waged in their name.
The signs were installed in the summer of 2004, staying up through the Republican National Convention, when the largest protests and number of arrests for a political convention were ever recorded.
