Mayor Zohran Mamdani announced the 10-year “Vision Zero Reimagined” plan on September 15, 2026.

9 11 tribute 25 year laterTwenty-five years have passed since the attacks of September 11, 2001, but the loss experienced on that day remains deeply felt throughout New York City and across the nation.

We also remember the extraordinary courage demonstrated by firefighters, police officers, emergency medical personnel, construction workers, volunteers, and countless others who responded without hesitation. In the face of unimaginable danger, they came forward to help strangers, rescue the injured, search for the missing, and support a city in mourning.
