remember - a memorial


The New England Holocaust Memorial is a worthwhile experience.

We went at night which is very eerie because there are these six tall glass towers. As you stand inside the tower there is a ‘pit’ below you with glowing ‘coals’ and steam that comes up to envelop you in each tower of memory. The glass on each tower is imprinted with millions of numbers representing the tattoos on the arms of the victims and quotes that give you a sense of who they were.
If you get to Boston you should go experience “A Beacon of Memory & Hope”
