Recalling the efforts and a time when terrorists actually existed rather than simply "enemy combatants."
karl-tepfer > View of the "Waterfall" underneath the Brooklyn Bridge.  Created by artist Olafur Eliasson, there were a total of 5 Waterfalls around various portions of Lower Manhattan during the Summer and Fall of 2008.
This was taken from the third floor of Pier 17 at the South Street Seaport.

karl-tepfer > I went to the base of the Brooklyn Bridge to capture some shots of the "Waterfalls" underneath the Bridge.  When I got there, close to sunset, this group of apparent bridge worshipers were gathered, seeming to wish "goodnight" to the Manhattan Bridge.
I did eventually get some images of the waterfall, which was directly behind me, but couldn't resist this one.
