City Council Workshop
Ten years after the tragedy, the permanent memorial is at 60% design with construction starting September 2026 and opening targeted for late 2027. Designers are burying the breach wall and dance floor rather than displaying them, and all 49 families have now confirmed their loved ones' names and photos.
