The Saratoga Springs, NY 9-11 Memorial is located in the historic High Rock Park, which is adjacent to the first natural spring that Native Americans found at the base of the rock escapement in this area (High Rock Spring). This location was chosen as the backdrop for a fitting connection to the history of the area along with the many emotional ties to the events of September 11, 2001.
Along with the donated efforts by many, The LA Group worked closely with the local architecture firm Frost/Hurf Architects, and the committee to site the sculpture in a manner that it becomes an extension of the natural granite escapement. This was accomplished by creating planting walls and steps of granite slabs that were taken from a local quarry and placed in and around the sculpture to create a natural setting. Today, with the City Public Works Department and through the coordination of volunteers by local resident and sports personality Dottie Pepper, annual maintenance and seasonal plantings are installed so that this memory and location are preserved. Many choose to partake in the annual ceremonies that take place at the park or visit in a more private manner for personal reflection.
