About the June 5th Memorial

Our Mission

The June 5th Memorial park is a civic memorial designed to assure that this tragedy will never be forgotten, and demolition safety will always be remembered. It will serve as a gathering place of reflection in support of communal advocacy for building safety.

Friends Group

The Friends Group is dedicated to preserving the memories of those lost to the building collapse on June 5, 2013, at the corner of 22nd and Market Streets, and respecting this place made sacred through tragic loss. The Friends Group works to raise awareness of worker and building safety to prevent tragedies like that which occurred on June 5, 2013 from happening again. We are open to the public and please join us during our next meeting event.
