This morning, community members, City Council members, staff, and law enforcement personnel gathered in front of City Hall to commemorate the 25th anniversary of September 11, 2001.

Together, we held a moment of silence at 9:37 a.m.—the moment American Airlines Flight 77 struck the Pentagon—to honor the lives lost, support the families forever changed, and thank our first responders who selflessly run toward danger every day to keep us safe.

The City of Falls Church community continues to stand together in reflection and gratitude. May this anniversary remind us of our shared strength, resilience, and commitment to supporting one another.
