Oculus - World Trade Center Transportation Hub
By Seeker
The Oculus is the above-ground structure of the World Trade Center Transportation Hub, designed by architect Santiago Calatrava and completed in 2016. Its white steel-and-glass ribbed form houses a transit concourse connecting PATH trains and multiple New York City Subway lines, and incorporates an underground Westfield shopping concourse; the design emphasizes natural light through a central skylight. The hub opened to the public on March 3, 2016 and is widely cited for its sculptural architecture and its role in the rebuilt World Trade Center site.
