Judge throws out bid to halt Twin Towers memorial
State Supreme Court Justice Shirley Kornreich said designers outlined thoroughly their plans to build on the Twin Towers site.
The families sued in March, saying plans to build part of the memorial on the footprints of the towers would destroy what was left of them. They accused the Lower Manhattan Development Corporation, the agency in charge of the design, of breaking state law by not consulting properly with them during a historic preservation review process.
