Santiago Calatrava's stunning white architectural marvel rises from the heart of the World Trade Center complex, serving as both a transportation hub and a museum devoted to 9/11 remembrance. The building's skeletal ribbed structure creates a breathtaking interior flooded with natural light, making it as much a spiritual space as a functional one. Beyond its role as a transit station, Oculus houses shops, restaurants, and galleries that celebrate resilience and renewal.
