Sam Oitice 911 Memorial

Responsible for leading the Peekskill Fire Department Memorial Committee in formulating a memorial in honor of 911 victims in the New York City Fire Department [FDNY], Police and Port Authority Police, and Sam Oitice, a native of Peekskill and a FDNY firefighter.  The design included coordination with granite quarries, as well as electrical and structural engineers.  The memorial design included seating, lighting, planting materials, stamped concrete pavement and stone dust walkways.  Mr. Church assisted in getting the memorial approved by the City of Peekskill Council to be located in the City's Riverfront Green Park.  Visual aids included the use of a 3D computer model for improved visualization.  Subsequent tasks included construction advisement to a volunteer construction staff working with the committee.
