Saba Mozakka, 28, whose mother was killed in the London bombings of July 7, 2005, says helping to make the Hyde Park monument a reality was a difficult but necessary task. Her mother Behnaz, a 47-year-old, biomedical officer, was commuting to work at London's Great Ormond Street Children's Hospital when she was killed on a Piccadilly line tube.

Saba says she still feels a sense of loss and described the tribute to those that died as a memorial to "52 very much loved and missed people."

The victims of the 2005 bombings have been commemorated by 52 stainless steel columns, or stelae, 11.5 feet tall erected in London's Hyde Park. The spires are arranged in four groups, symbolizing four separate attacks on London's transport system that terrible day.
Singular And Collective Loss

Architect Kevin Carmody, one of the project's design team, told Building Design that the design represents both singular and collective loss. The families, who consulted with the memorial's creators, thought "it was important to mark each life that was lost with something tangible," Carmody said.
