I took another walk through #OccupyPhilly at Philadelphia City Hall this morning and found more tents sheltering protesters from the damp weather but couldn’t help but notice the lack of engagement between demonstrators and morning rush hour commuters. ©2011 jim@jimmacmillan.com

Ground Zero: Then and Now
Posted by: | Comments
I was in New York yesterday and the bin Laden news prompted me to take my first walk around Ground Zero in perhaps a couple of years. I stopped at many of the locations I had photographed on 9/11 and took new pictures with my iPhone.
In the top photo, FDNY firefighters carry a body into the lobby of the Dow Jones Building at the World Financial Center, which was being used as a temporary morgue late on the 11th. Yesterday, it was shiny and clean again.
For the most part, the visit was a cathartic experience, and it was good to see so much progress at last, but some of the commercial advertising nearby was still hard to swallow. I understand the appeal of carrying on with business as usual, but this will always be a sacred place for me.
I will post some more photos in the coming days.
