MEMORIAL JUDGES FACE DAUNTING TASK

Monday was the deadline for entries for the World Trade Center memorial competition, Robert Campbell writes in the Boston Globe, and, though it’s not yet known how many of the thirteen thousand people who registered for the competition actually sent proposals, it’s safe to say that the final tally of entrants will be well into the thousands. The judging will be done by a thirteen-member jury that consists of artists, architects, cultural leaders, a family member of a victim, a local resident, a local business owner, and representatives of the governor and mayor.
