Why Pair Them
- The museum invites reflection; OWO provides expansive context and light.
- Walking distance keeps logistics simple; build in emotional buffer time.
Suggested Flow
- Morning: 9/11 Memorial & Museum with time to reflect.
- Midday: Quiet lunch nearby; avoid tight turnarounds.
- Afternoon: OWO for perspective and skyline context; linger at windows.
Time Management
- Museum: 90–120 minutes.
- Transition + lunch: 60–90 minutes.
- OWO: 75–120 minutes; consider sunset if weather aligns.
Note: Give emotional room after the museum; OWO pairs well as a hopeful, expansive view of the city.
