DEL MAR — For the past 11 years, Del Mar residents have created “Silent Tribute” with 3,000 flags at Powerhouse Park to remember and honor those who died in the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks.

The conceptual piece, conceived by local artist Barbara Krystoff-Scott, takes about four hours to complete with help from students from the nearby Winston School.
