Inside the Oculus Transportation Hub

Have you been to the Oculus before?๐Ÿคฉ (๐’๐š๐ฏ๐ž ๐Ÿ๐จ๐ซ ๐Ÿ๐ฎ๐ญ๐ฎ๐ซ๐ž ๐ญ๐ซ๐š๐ฏ๐ž๐ฅ๐ฌ) I hadnโ€™t heard of this building until we were visiting New York and at ground zero, looking over the reflecting pools, where the twin towers once stood. The white building looked so unique, with wings that have been likened to a dove and pure white. It looks nothing like the other buildings in NYC ~ we had to check it out and see what was inside! Turns out, itโ€™s a train station, plaza, and mall - the third largest transportation hub in NYC, built to replace the PATH train station and other buildings that were destroyed when the twin towers fell. You donโ€™t really think about the damage that was caused to the surrounding areas, but itโ€™s amazing what they have done to build up this part of New York again๐ŸŒ‡ *When you go, look through the roof in the center of the building ~ you can see the One World Trade Center. The architect was very thoughtful when it came to designing this beautiful building. โžก๏ธ Follow our travel adventures @eastcoast.blondies . . .
