The Massachusetts Port Authority (MASSPORT) had a contest in 2003 for a 1.6 acre for a 9/11 memorial at the entrance to Boston Logan Airport’s Terminal Area and is located adjacent to the Hilton Hotel and the West Garage. The memorial site was selected because of its visibility, pedestrian accessibility, and proximity to the Hilton Hotel, the center of Care Team operations (Care Teams from the Authority and the airlines administered to the friends and families of the 9/11 passengers).

A flagpole and monument at a West Roxbury fire station were dedicated yesterday in the name of fallen New York City firefighter Gerard Dewan, who died heroically on Sept. 11, 2001, after he reached the 40th floor of the north tower of the World Trade Center. Dewan, who would have turned 38 yesterday, grew up in West Roxbury. His numerous relatives have served the Boston fire and police departments for generations. “The name of Dewan is legendary in the Boston Fire Department,” Fire Commissioner Paul Christian said. The memorial graces the entrance to the home of Engine 30 and Ladder 25 at 1914 Centre St., near the corner of Bellevue Street, in West Roxbury.
