The New York Times published an interactive remembrance titled "Sept. 11 and the Persistence of Memory" marking the 25th anniversary of the attacks. The package collects personal essays and photographic images that revisit the "fleeting memories and indelible images" that still haunt people who lived through the day. Reporter Dan Barry is named as a contributor and several posts describe his pieces as capturing horror and sadness while finding a kind of beauty. The remembrance includes work about photographer Eddie Keating, who is noted in responses as now deceased. The Times temporarily lifted its paywall for 9/11 anniversary coverage to make these remembrances freely available.
