Pulse: Memorial to Commemorate Shooting Victims in Florida

1 / 5

In June 2012, 49 people were killed and 53 injured in a shooting at the Pulse nightclub in Orlando, Florida.  The site now hosts a temporary memorial to the victims - but this is set to be replaced by a multi-million dollar monument that will encapsulate the damaged remains of the original building.  A white, circular canopy will wrap the building and will provide covered seating for visitors, among 49 trees planted for the victims.  

However, the planned monument has divided opinions among the victims' families and the wider public.
