This yearly Memorial ceremony provides an opportunity for the community to pay their respects to the men and women on public safety’s front lines.
The City of San Luis Obispo’s 9/11 Memorial commemorates the lives of those first responders who perished on that fateful morning of September 11, 2001 and provides visitors with the opportunity to learn more about the men and women who sacrificed their lives so that others may live.
The centerpiece of the Memorial ground is an I-beam from the World Trade Center. Surrounding this steel, each of the 403 vertical rods represents one of the emergency responders whose life was lost on this tragic day; communicating the scale of human loss.
