Here’s the beginning and conclusion of the 2015 NYC 9/11 Memorial Remembrance. Vice President Joe Biden delivered these remarks today at NYC 9/11 remembrance and the Wall Street Journal takes us Behind The Scenes of the World Trade Center Tribute In Light. The Roosevelt Island Twittervese asked:

@deetelecare No, I am not aware of any 9/11 remembrance on Roosevelt Island tomorrow.

@deetelecare I believe 2011 was the last time Roosevelt Island had a 9/11 Remembrance. http://t.co/8MI4KmXZh9
