Skyscraper Safety Campaign
Advisers to the Skyscraper Safety Campaign, an organization led by two relatives of 9/11 victims, say that the plan for long transfer corridors between the exit doors and stairwells leading up to street level might prompt some visitors, particularly if they were disabled or out of shape, to reverse course and try to get to the wide ramps in the central memorial hall, creating a potentially disastrous bottleneck. The Skyscraper Safety Campaign was founded by Sally Regenhard, whose son, Christian, a probationary firefighter, died on Sept. 11, 2001. Another technical adviser to the campaign, Jake Pauls, a consultant in building codes and public safety in Silver Spring, Md., raised concern about the hallways that will confront many visitors once they are past the exit doors.
