Poignant Message Back Of 9:03AM End Wall, Oklahoma City Memorial Editorial Photo

Pictured is the poignant message on the back of the 9:03 end wall. The Field of Empty Chairs is a tribute to the 168 Americans killed in the bombing on April 19, 1995 at 9:02 AM. There are 9 rows of chairs, representing the nine floors of the Alfred P. Murrah Building that once stood here. Each person`s chair is positioned in the row that corresponds to the floor on which they worked or were visiting. The granite walkway was constructed of granite salvaged from the Murrah building. The reflective pool is between wall ends with 9:01AM and 9:03AM.
