Friday, Septebmer 11, 2026 – Louis Kahn’s Design Journey: From Notes to Masterpieces

By admin

THIS MORNING WE WERE AT DETROIT AIRPORT. AT 8:47 A.M. THE AIRPORT CAME TO A COMPLETE HALT AND AN ANNOUNCEMENT OF A MINUTE OF SILENCE WOULD BE OBSERVED, COMPLETE WITH AN
HONOR GUARD.

AFTERWARD WE SPOKE TO MR. GILMORE A TSA OFFICER. HE JOINED TSA ONE YEAR AFTER 9/11. HE TOLD US HE HAD NEVER MET NEW YOKERS WHO WERE IN NEW YORK ON THAT DAY. HE FELT IT MEANT SO MUCH HAVING MET NEW YORKERS ON THIS DAY. WE HONOR HIM FOR HIS SERVICE TO OUR COUNTY.
