The Rockaways were hit particularly hard by 9/11, with a disproportionately high number of residents killed in the attacks. In an expression of the peninsula's collective grief, this formerly vacant lot was transformed into Tribute Park, with a number of monuments to the victims and a clear view of the altered downtown skyline across the waters of Jamaica Bay.
