Story summary

The NBC News provided an exclusive glimpse into the maintenance of the 9/11 Reflecting Pools, which are part of the National September 11 Memorial in New York City. The pools, each one acre in size, require daily cleaning to ensure their pristine condition and symbolic significance. A team of workers carefully remove debris and maintain the water’s clarity, often working early mornings before visitors arrive. This meticulous upkeep honors the nearly 3,000 victims of the September 11 attacks by preserving the solemnity and beauty of the memorial site.
