Our first example of the tenth-anniversary 9/11 presentations is the Boston Globe, circulation 219,214.
The Globe started a series on Sunday looking back at the attacks and how we’ve moved on — or not — since then.
Day one looked at four families that lost loved ones that day.
The designer for this package was Greg Klee. The pictures are by Suzanne Kreiter. The story itself is by Jenna Russell.
The three inside pages are designed in a parallel style. The white space in the middle help breaks up all that type and make it look a little less intimidating.
Click on those pages — or any page today — for a much larger look.
Monday brought Day Two of the series, which examined what ten years of war and occupation have wrought in Afghanistan.
The photography is by Shawn Baldwin. The reporter is David Filipov. Greg Klee designed this segment, as well.
Today, the series focuses back on Boston again, to look at folks who worked at Logan airport and how the attacks — some of which originated from there — affected them.
The woman in the huge front-page photo is a flight attendant who was scheduled to be on American Airlines Flight 11. But she called in sick that day.
Today’s story by Eric Moskowitz is particularly powerful. I recommend you take a few moments to read it.
These portraits are by Yoon S. Byun. Again, this is Greg Klee with the design.

Not sure if this was intentional or not, but the stories are broken up into pairs of uninterrupted columns — a pretty apt visual metaphor.
