NEW
YORK - giant fountains and two ponds plus giant twin waterfalls on each
side, is one of the attractions of the National Park Museum and the
September 11 World Trade Center complex (WTC) KotaNew York, United
States (U.S.). Magnificent
building skyscraper with an underground museum that is still in the
process of completion, have drawn 4.5 million visitors in its first year
of operation.
Unfortunately,
all the beauty of the feast for the eyes in the center of New Yorkitu
took a lot of cost for the completion and maintenance. Foundation
managers tragedy memorial park and museum 11 September 2011 attacks
(9/11) estimates the total project completion swallow a budget of U.S. $
700 million.In addition, maintenance costs could reach U.S. $ 60 million per year. Wow!Inevitably,
many supporters of the plan includes the construction of this building
who are concerned about the size of the budget. In fact, without a huge government subsidies, it is feared that the building maintenance and operasionasilasi be sustained.By
comparison, this year's National Landscape Agency budgeted U.S. $ 8.4
for the operation and maintenance of the Gettysburg National Military
Park, the U.S. $ 3.6 million for the USS Arizona memorial in Pearl
Harbor. While
for managing Arlington National Cemetery which has more than 14,000
graves and receives 4 million visitors per year, the allocated budget is
U.S. $ 45 million per year.But
officials managing monument memorial 9/11 WTC say the problem is unique
to the difficult cases compared with memorials nationwide. The
foundation plans to spend at least one-fifth of the operating budget,
or about U.S. $ 12 million per year, for the purposes of a special
anti-terrorism security.One
of the security systems in place for visitors this monument is
equivalent examination plus airport armed guards patrolling every part
of the monument. "The
fact that this place was attacked twice," said Joseph Daniels,
president and chief executive of the foundation managers of monuments of
9/11, as reported by Yahoonews, Monday (10/09/2012).For
example, just to operate two giant fountains that mark the site of the
former twin towers once stood, will cost between U.S. $ 4.5 million to
U.S. $ 5 million per year, foundation spokesman, Michael Frazier. Furthermore,
the foundation refused to specify the needs of other costs, including
the estimated operational costs are expected to remain the old museum
completed.The
museum building should be able to be opened to the public this month,
but construction was halted construction of all of last year due to
funding disputes arising between the foundation and the Port Authority
of New York and New Jerseys elaku landowners.Daniels said it would take at least a year to complete the construction of its construction. This means that the museum may not be fully complete and accessible to the public at least until 2014.Until now, the price of admission this location has not been determined. However,
if the number of visitors could reach an average of 2 million per year
with an estimated U.S. $ 12 entrance fee, it will be able to cover 40
percent of operating costs.The
management will also seek voluntary contributions from the public,
raising funds to support the sale of memorabilia for its operational
expenses. While the U.S. public proposal must bear one-third of operational costs through taxes, Congress has rejected.
