The World Trade Center is a beautiful architectural building in Manhattan, New York. It is a terminal station for the rail system (PATH) with in the world trade center complex in New York. It is also a popular destination for many tourists. I think anyone will love this place to visit.
The World Trade Center offers direct, weather-protected access to most of the City’s subway, bus and ferry lines and unmatched mass transit - 12 subways & PATH trains are accessible directly from the buildings.
The new World Trade Center is transforming downtown shopping with new retails, appealing to a large and diversified audience of international & local visitors.
I’m glad that you like my post and photos @Pratik_89 , it’s a wonderful architectural building in New York. Hope you will visit this beautiful place very soon after the COVID-19 pandemic will over.
Amazing post @AbdullahAM Vai. You also look georgeous in front of that nice building. I hope you have many posts to come on your visit to the states . Thanks for sharing this ncie post. Stay safe.
@AbdullahAM Yes, you ARE at the World Trade Center (which is an AREA with defined boundaries with many buildings and the 9/11 Memorial), but that is NOT the name of any one building. The building you have photographed is officially named the Transportation Hub but has become commonly referred to as the Oculus (although technically the actual oculus is only one part of that building).
Most of the buildings at the World Trade Center (both before and now 20 years after 9/11 have numbers that are used for their name… including the tower which is One WTC. The Transportation Hub is an exception to that rule.
Thank you for raising your concern and unnecessary doubt, please read my first line what i wrote “The World Trade Center is a beautiful architectural building in Manhattan, New York. It is a terminal station for the rail system (PATH) with in the world trade center complex in New York”.
@AbdullahAM Firstly, I worked in the Twin Towers at the World Trade Center for many years prior to 9/11 and have followed the reconstruction/renewal of the area closely. As a 9/11 “survivor,” I volunteer to lead tours of the area. So keep that in mind when I tell you again that you made a mistake when you called that BUILDING the “World Trade Center.” As you went on to correctly say, it IS part of the World Trade Center COMPLEX… but the official name of that BUILDING is the Transportation Hub (but it is more popularly called The Oculus). It was designed by Spanish architect Santiago Calatrava. I hope you now understand that saying that the name of this BUILDING is “World Trade Center” was a mistake (that you can probably still go back and correct).
