...to the victims of the WTC attack.

From an article in the New Zealand Herald -

"Meanwhile, a steel "cross" found in the rubble has been adopted by rescue workers as a symbol of faith.

"The 6m cross, which fell intact from one of the twin towers, was found early in the search for survivors.

"Rescue workers have since made pilgrimages to pray or meditate near it, some etching messages on the metal.

"This week, workers hoisted the cross atop a 12m-high foundation and stood quietly as it was blessed with holy water."

We can't have that, there's that mythical 'separation of church and state' thing. Mythical because that's not really what's in the BOR.
