New York opens world’s most expensive station near 9/11 site:
The world’s most expensive station has opened to the public in New York, close to the site of the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Center. The World Trade Center Transportation Hub is expected to serve more than 200,000 commuters daily.

The NY Times says of this boldly organic building, “Santiago Calatrava’s winged dove, beefed up to meet security demands, devolved into a dino carcass. The project’s cost soared toward a head-slapping, unconscionable $4 billion in public money for what, in effect, is the 18th-busiest subway stop in New York City, tucked inside a shopping mall, down the block from another shopping center.”

The Wall Street Journal describes the Santiago Calatrava’s WTC transportation hub, “Thursday marked a partial opening for the hub. Subway service is expected to begin in the next four to six weeks, and stores and restaurants will take up residence in the now-empty spaces around the central atrium.
Reactions were mixed among New Yorkers who saw the interior for the first time. Visitors were wowed by the building, but less pleased by the transit center’s $3.9 billion cost.

Mr. Mone sells real estate in the surrounding neighborhood and said he has seen it transform from a commercial district to a residential area in the years since the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks. Amenities, however, have lagged behind, he said.
“You need an anchor like this,” he said. “Over time, it’s going to be one of the most photographed buildings.”
