World Trade Center report

The Port Authority unveiled a comprehensive, clear-eyed report on its vision for the new World Trade Center, the progress made to date, and the path that lies ahead. The report outlines clearly defined goals, schedules and budgets, and describes the new governance structure that will ensure greater accountability and transparency as the project continues toward completion. Among other key points, the report includes: A construction solution that will allow the Memorial to open on the 10th anniversary of September 11, 2001, a simplified design of the World Trade Center Transportation hub that retains Santiago Calatrava's iconic vision while keeping the rebuilding effort on track, important benchmarks and construction milestones, so the public can hold us accountable, and a strategy to rebuild Greenwich Street years ahead of the original schedule, including a new, more efficient approach to underpin the no. 1 subway line.
