ML newsletter said:A Reminder: Merrill Lynch Homecoming
Dear Colleagues:
We will commemorate our return to the World Financial Center and our offices in lower Manhattan at a special ceremony tomorrow, Wednesday, 27 March. This ceremony marks the return of more than 8,000 employees who were evacuated on 11 September. Limited seating is still available on a first-come, first-served basis.
We will be joined at this special event, which will begin promptly at 9:15 am at the Liberty Street entrance of the South Tower, by New York State Governor George Pataki, New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and U.S. Senator Charles Schumer.
We are asking all Merrill Lynch colleagues to arrive by 9 am. You can enter the South Tower next to the Winter Garden or at the "circle" entrance on South End Avenue. From the North Tower, exit through the doors next to Starbucks and walk around the Winter Garden construction site to the entrances.
For your convenience, an extra shuttle from 570 Washington Street and 222 Broadway will leave those locations at 8:30 am and arrive just west of 250 Vesey Street at the corner of North End Avenue. From there, you will walk south toward the boat basin and then head toward the Winter Garden. There will be staff providing directions to the ceremony. After the event, there will be shuttle service outside Liberty Street back to 222 Broadway and 570 Washington Street.
Please plan to arrive early and look for the Merrill Lynch employee registration desk. You will need your employee identification to enter.
Thank you if you have already registered to attend the Merrill Lynch Homecoming.
