Toronto-based architectural photographer Michael Muraz has shared with us some of the first images seen inside Santiago Calatrava‘s nearly complete World Trade Center Transportation Hub. Set to open this year, the “glorious” birdlike structure boasts a 355-foot-long operable “Oculus” – a “slice of the New York sky – that floods the hub’s interior with natural light, all the way down 60-feet below street level to the PATH train platform.
Though its been shamed for being years overdue and $2 billion over budget (making it the world’s most expensive transit hub), the completed project is turning heads. Take a look for yourself after the break.
