Montgomery County Memorial Moves to Norristown | Philadelphia News

Montgomery County’s iconic 18-foot 9/11 memorial—crafted from a steel beam salvaged from the World Trade Center’s North Tower—is relocating for the first time in history, embarking on a seven-mile journey to its new home in Elmwood Park, Norristown. Originally installed at the courthouse in 2005 after being conceived in 2003, this powerful symbol of remembrance is now being moved by a massive community effort involving local police, fire departments, and labor unions. The procession kicks off at 10 AM on Saturday, July 6th, taking about three hours to complete. This move marks a new chapter, ensuring the memorial’s enduring presence as a tribute to those lost—and to the resilience of the community that honors them.
