See the captivating Ground Zero 360: Never Forget exhibit at the Holocaust Museum Houston from Thursday, September 11, 2014 through Sunday, January 11, 2015. 

Documenting the on-the-ground impact of the attacks on New York City on September 11, 2001, Ground Zero 360: Never Forget is a unique retrospective exhibit curated by a first responder police captain and an Irish-born photographer who was living in Manhattan and photographed the fallout of the attack.

After the planes hit the two towers of the World Trade Center that morning, photographer Nicola McClean responded sticking to her profession, grabbing her camera and documenting the confusion and panic in the streets around her. At the same time, officer Paul McCormack, rushed to downtown Manhattan, and worked in the rescue and recovery effort at Ground Zero.

Following the event, McClean and McCormack began to work together to create Ground Zero 360: Never Forget, a stunning panoramic installation of photographic images, visuals and audio clips that provides a unique insight into the hearts and minds of New Yorkers in the days that followed the attacks.
