Twin beams of light representing the World Trade Center towers won’t be beamed into the sky during this year’s memorial of the 9/11 terror attacks in New York City.

Organizers said Thursday that they canceled the display because of concerns about the coronavirus and the health of work crews.

Last month, organizers also cited the pandemic in canceling the annual reading of names in person by relatives of the terror attack victims.
