Last year, in the days following the September 11 terrorist attacks in New York, people spontaneously created street museums around the site of the commercial buildings and around St. Paul's Church, which served as memorials for the victims of that tragedy. Now, these artifacts will be dismantled and moved to a permanent indoor location. Nazi Baghlari, a reporter for Voice of America, reports on this matter.
