VIDEO: 9/11 Osprey Takes Flight From Greenport to Peconic

Amidst controversy, pilots and engineers make the move for 'Morning Call' before the 10th anniversary of 9/11.

'Morning Call,' a metal osprey memorial to those lost in the attacks of September 11, was flown by helicopter from its longtime home on the shoreline of Greenport Harbor to a spot in the middle of Jean Cochran Park in Peconic.

North Fork Helicopter transported the sculpture before 8 a.m. and gently dropped it face-down into a dirt pile. North Fork Welding lifted the column salvaged from the 33rd floor of the World Trade Center.

Watch this video of the relocation of the 9/11 memorial.
