Paul Martinka 3 The NYC Council is using $90,000 in discretionary funds budget to replace 269 standard green street signs - which were hung shortly after Sept. 11, 2001, with the names of the fallen heroes, on the streets where they once lived. Helayne Seidman for the NY Post Menin said, Ahead of the 25th anniversary, the Council is recognizing the heroes who lost their lives as a result of the tragic September 11th attacks. Feliz added: Restoring the 9/11 fallen heroes signs reflects our longstanding gratitude and commitment to honor those who gave their lives in service to keep our city safe. There were 415 first responders who died during 9/11, but only those who lived in NYC had streets co-named after them.
