Description:

Monica Iken-Murphy was in her Riverdale apartment the morning of Sept. 11, 2001, when she got a call from her husband, Michael. Outside, lower Manhattan bustles with activity. But within the confines of the 9/11 Memorial & Museum, the waterfalls inside the twin footprints of where New York City’s original World Trade Center stood creates a serenity unmatched anywhere. For many alive and of age on Sept. 11, 2001, the memories of what happened that day are as clear as a crystal. But few more than first responders like Capt. Anthony Rich of the New York Fire Department’s Ladder 52, who can relive each moment of that day with so much clarity. Marcie Donohue averted her face as a kindergarten class passed her in the corridor of P.S. 81 Robert J. Christen School, holding hands and smiling. Shortly after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks, someone anonymously constructed a wooden plaque in Endor Garden, a small wooded area near West 253rd Street and Fieldston Road. On it, they included the names of five area firefighters and police officers who lost their lives on 9/11. REMEMBERING 9/11 Families wait and pray: Attack takes heavy toll REMEMBERING 9/11 Mourning for the far-too-many victims of 9/11 REMEMBERING 9/11 Solemn Torah ceremony recalls day of infamy REMEMBERING 9/11 For 12 families, 9/11 changed lives forever Express bus kills local politico just outside her Johnson Avenue home Friends and family are waking up Wednesday morning to discover one of the community's more prolific voices has been lost. Like many since the start of the coronavirus pandemic, Veronica Cruz has been dealt a bad hand. First, the EMS technician had her hours slashed by the New York Fire Department. Still she found a way to pay her rent, thanks in part to a second job she held. But when that went away, Cruz found herself buried in past-due notices. While some could wait for better days, others — like those she had to pay in order to keep her home — were far more pressing. It happens once every decade, and has major implications for how our country is run. That is, of course, the U.S. Census. But just as impactful is something that comes right after: When all 50 states redraw their congressional and state legislative districts. Time’s up! The eviction moratorium has expired. After the U.S. Supreme Court ruled against the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention’s federal eviction moratorium, it’s now up to states like New York to help keep tenants financially affected by the coronavirus pandemic in their homes. How can religious people come together and celebrate during a global pandemic? That’s a question Jewish communities all over the world are wrestling with for the second straight year as the High Holy Days of Rosh Hashana and Yom Kippur approach. And the Jewish community in this part of the Bronx is no exception. Living with terror after 9/11 Each person who works at The Riverdale Press got the phone call on Tuesday morning. Probably nearly everyone who lives in Riverdale got it. A difficult anniversary, but 9/11 is about never forgetting There was nothing more exciting to me growing up than a trip to the airport. And it was certainly an Salvation's price: A terrorism fable There was once a very old woman who was very small and bent over. Because she had always been so tiny, Giants' shoulders support us all When I used to pass the World Trade Center at night, I would always be sure to look at the red beacon Dates that live in infamy: 12/7/1941 and 9/11/2001 Just three months short of 60 years ago, we lived through another barbaric horror.
