The sphere, which stood in the center of the Austin J. Tobin Plaza prior to 9/11 and was recovered from the rubble after the attacks, had been on display in Battery Park since March 2002. In early August 2017, the artwork was returned to the World Trade Center and was installed in the center of Liberty Park, where it has undergone cleaning since its arrival on the site.
The sphere will be formally dedicated at its permanent home at a later date.
