I / UNITY CANAL The sweeping Unity Canal connects the North and South meadow canals, forever uniting the spirit of the people who perished there. Along with the entry bridges, it will serve to remind humankind of the never-ending journey in the search for freedom. Engraved along the wall of the Unity Canal are the names of the 92 nations that tragically lost citizens in the terrorist attacks. This canal unites all nations in the ongoing quest for world peace, justice and freedom.
