These are all from the memorial where the federal building was:

This is the view across the reflecting pond.

A couple other views of it:

This is the last remaining wall from the building:

There's one empty chair for every victim. They're arranged in 9 rows that represent the 9 floors of the building. On the bottom of the chair is the person's name, and they're in the row for the floor they were on when they were killed.

This is the wall from a building next door facing the blast. One of the rescuers wrote this the day the attack happened:

One other interesting note, the granite walkways around the memorial were all made out of the remains of the actual building.

I took these all with my cell phone so the quality isn't great, I'll post up some we took with a real camera once they get emailed to me.

Wow. Powerful stuff including the memorial chairs and the wall writing preserved.
What was this attack about again? Memory kind of vague.

BTW, the pics look very good. Would not have thought were taken with a mobile phone.
