WhatTower of Voices Media Preview
The Tower of Voices is on schedule for completion in late summer and will be dedicated on Sunday, September 9, 2018. Set among a ring of trees, the 93-foot tall tower will feature 40 wind chimes, whose sound will resonate throughout the memorial to honor each of the passengers and crew members. The design and construction of the tower – totaling nearly $6 million – was made possible thanks to a grant from the National Park Foundation.
National Park Service staff will guide interested media from the parking lot to the base of the tower in advance of its public opening. Additional information and construction images are available.
