Throughout centuries, bells have been the universal voice for freedom, celebration & loss. 

Let's host in true Manhattan style, the world's largest, manual carillon –  of unprecedented seven octaves, suspended on the "Surviving Steel."  Each bell represents a nation that lost a citizen in the WTC tragedy. In consultation with World Peace Bell, Verdin Foundry (one of the oldest family business in America), NY area representative Scott Edgell, Schulmerich Carillons, and the North American Guild of Carillonneurs, 95 harmonically-paired bells (totaling over 100 tons), would chime quarterly and offer live performances for public ceremonies and celebrations.   During anniversary ceremonies, 9/11 Family Members and distinguished guests may individually toll the 42,000-pound base bell.  This 11-ft diameter bell is mounted at waist level, between the two WTC corner columns. Its extraordinary size and placement invites visitors to touch the beautiful inscriptions.
