The exposure zone spans from Houston Street to the southern tip of Manhattan
The World Trade Center Exposure Zone is the area extending south from Houston Street in Lower Manhattan and covering a 1.5-mile radius from Ground Zero, including a western edge of Brooklyn. Placing yourself inside the Exposure Zone means that you breathed in the toxic air from the smoke and debris of the World Trade Center. However, it is important to note that the exposure zone that might deem you eligible for money from the Victim Compensation Fund is the area defined as south of Canal Street and west of Clinton Street, covering all of Lower Manhattan south of those boundaries.
The New York City Disaster Area is the site within New York City that is the area of Manhattan that is south of Houston Street, and any block in Brooklyn that is contained within a 1.5-mile radius of the World Trade Center site. If you were in the exposure zone that might qualify you for money from the 9/11 Victim Compensation Fund, we strongly encourage you to give our attorneys a call, as they can efficiently help you file a claim and obtain the financial compensation you might be entitled to.
