"RESOLVE & REMEMBRANCE" - Carmel 911 Memorial

“The steel was cut and received by the Monterey Firefighters Association at Randall’s Island, New York, gifted expressly to Carmel-by-the-Sea. From there they transported it across the U.S.A., with intermittent stops to share with Americans along the way.”

The “Resolve & Remembrance” memorial will be an imposing granite boulder with the engraved piece of Ground Zero steel seemingly floating over it. Granite Rock and Granite Construction have donated the boulder. City appointed landscape designer Michelle Comeau created the setting for the memorial at the Mission St. and 6th Av. location in Devendorf Park.
