Located on 88th Street, a green space and fountain will honor the lives lost in the tragedy.

The final rendering comes after years of controversy regarding the site over concerns that a loading dock for a new building would obstruct the area.

There was also controversy regarding the building itself, deemed the Delmore.

Marketing materials call it 37 mansions in the sky, going for $15 million apiece.

Martin Langesfeld, who lost his sister and brother-in-law in the tragedy, has raised concerns about the memorial and the plans for the ultra-luxury building.

Langesfeld said construction on it shouldn’t begin until a federal investigation into the tragedy is complete.

The final results of the federal investigation are not expected until 2026.

In a preliminary presentation last year, investigators mentioned that the pool deck of the building collapsed at least four minutes before the tower itself collapsed.
