Design and Construction Updates

The Design Timeless in simplicity and beauty,
like its landscape, both stark and serene, the Memorial should be quiet in reverence, yet powerful in form,
a place both solemn and uplifting. Paul Murdoch, Architect Flight 93 National Memorial has come a long way since Congress
authorized its development in 2002. An international competition was
conducted to chose the design for the permanent memorial and over
1,000 entries were submitted. The work of Paul Murdoch Architects and Nelson Byrd Woltz Landscape Architects was selected after a two stage competition. That design is now taking shape. The first features of the memorial were dedicatedon September 10, 2011. Work continues on the remaining features.
NPS Completed Features On September 10, 2011 the first features of the memorial were completed and dedicated. These include the new entrance, new roads, and the Memorial Plaza at the crash. Explore these features.
