NEW YORK (WCBS 880) — The Stephen Siller Tunnel to Towers Foundation announced Friday it will step in to make sure the annual “Tribute in Light” shines on September 11.

The 9/11 Memorial and Museum announced on its website on Thursday that the “Tribute in Light” has been canceled this year due to coronavirus concerns.

After over 19,000 people signed a Change.org petition calling on Gov. Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill de Blasio to allow the annual tribute to continue next month, Frank Siller announced the Tunnel to Tower foundation would set up its own light memorial near the World Trade Center Location.
