A memorial garden using Scottish Caithness paving cut by waterjet and English Portland limestone will open this summer in New York to commemorate the British people who died in the terrorist attack on the World Trade Centre on 11 September 2001.

The garden is helping to revitalize one of Lower Manhattan\'s most historic areas, celebrating the long-standing ties between the UK and the United States while honouring the 67 British victims of the terrorist attacks. The British Memorial Garden is intended both as a living memorial and as a place of solitude, comfort and reflection, an essentially British garden drawing from the many elements of the historic gardens of Britain, planted with flora from across the British Isles.
