NEW YORK CITY (WABC) The MTA has lost 136 employees to COVID-19 since the pandemic began, and on Monday, they launched a living memorial to honor them.
The engaging visual memorial honors those heroes who dedicated their lives to moving New Yorkers through the city and region.
Built around photographs shared by family members, the memorial was designed by MTA Arts & Design, at the request of Interim President of MTA New York City Transit Sarah Feinberg. The pandemic has marked an unimaginably challenging and painful time at New York City Transit, Feinberg said. Today marks the next step in our ongoing efforts to honor the colleagues, friends and family members who were taken from us too soon. These men and women were the heroes of the transit system - conductors, bus and train operators, cleaners - but they were also mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters. We think of them daily and we continue to mourn them with their friends and families.
