Inside Hangar 17: The World Trade Center Steel Program

Twisted Steel
Artifacts recovered from the World Trade Center sit inside Hangar 17 at New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport, June 16, 2011. The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey operates the World Trade Center steel program out of the building, donating steel recovered from the WTC site to cities, towns, firehouses and museums around the United States and the world. A number of pieces are leaving for their destinations now, in preparation for the 10 year anniversary of the 2001 attacks.
