One year
after the terrorist attacks, the area around Ground Zero in downtown New
York City is showing another sign of life -- the reopening of several
nearby hotels. The Millennium Hilton, the Marriott World Financial Center
and the Embassy Suites Hotels were all closed down following the events
of last September 11. The Marriott opened its doors to guests once again
in January. The Embassy Suites reopened in May, and the Hilton is hopeful
it will reopen in the near future.
In addition,
there is new development to report in that area. Over 500 new hotel rooms
will become available in December and January. Life may not ever return
fully to normal, but it does continue on.

here were accurate as of publication. As always, check with the hotel
