The Wailing Wall

 


This subway wall display started after the 2016 presidential election in NYC's Union Square Station. It is still attracting Post-It notes after 2024 presidential election. It's where Democrats go to complain and worry. There might even be a line.

I think I know where this wall display is. Near the 16th Street/17th Street exit there used to be a piece of tape on the individual tiles for every person who died on 9/11 downtown. The names were arranged alphabetically and when I was in the area I always stopped and looked for the names of the people I knew who died that day.

Over the years the tape got dirty and some names became illegible. I suspect there names are now gone, but not forgotten. 

The Subway Therapy wall has been put to another use of certainly less value.
