The Lens: Capturing Life and Events at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum is a photography series devoted to documenting moments big and small that unfold at the 9/11 Memorial and Museum.
The View: Although New York City was not in the path of totality during Monday’s “Great American Eclipse,” a one-of-a-kind view of the partial solar eclipse could be seen through protective glasses or a pinhole projector on the Memorial Plaza.
