Cell phone symbol for Flight 93 Memorial

The Flight 93 Memorial to be built near Shanksville, Pa, honors the 40 passengers and crew who died on the plane on 9/11.

According to the The Associated Press, The Tower of Voices is a tower that marks the entrance and exit from the memorial site at Route 30. The tower will be set on a planted mound within rings of pine trees and it will house 40 wind chimes symbolizing the 40 passengers and crew killed on the plane. The noise of the wind chimes is also symbolic because many of the victims had their last contact with loved ones on cell phones.
