Church lost on 9/11 rises again in N.Y.C.

NEW YORK (AP) — A Greek Orthodox church taking shape across from the World Trade Center memorial plaza will glow at night like a marble beacon when it opens sometime next year. It also will mark another step in the long rebuilding of New York's ground zero.

The St. Nicholas National Shrine will replace a tiny church that was crushed by the trade center's south tower on Sept. 11, 2001.
