The WTC West Concourse in Lower Manhattan formally opened to the public today, providing a much needed link for commuters that has been unavailable since the September 11th attacks.
The 600-foot long, marble-paved Pot Authority passageway runs underneath West Street, linking the World Trade PATH station to the former World Financial Center.
Commuters had been using a pedestrian bridge, which many felt was crowded and inconvenient at times.
The corridor is part of a nearly $ 4 billion redevelopment of the World Trade Center site that includes a new transportation hub.
That’s scheduled to be completed in 2015.
