sstavsky has added a photo to the pool:
This is the Staten Island September 11 memorial. Built in 2004, it honors the 274 Staten Island residents killed in the September 11 attacks of 2001 and in the 1993 World Trade Center bombing. Inside the two walls of the sculpture (the postcards), each Staten Island victim is honored with a 9-by-11-inch granite plaque bearing their name, birthdate, and place of work on September 11, 2001, as well as their profile in silhouette. You can see the new World Trade Center in the far distance between the two walls.
The memorial was designed by architect Masayuki Sono.
