Lower Manhattan Station

"I started with, really, the urbanity of New York. What happened on that site. The site has forever been marred by the memory of the tragedy and loss on the site. So, memory is a very important aspect of how to develop the site. I started with that. I started with the foundations -- going all the way down to Ground Zero, all the way 70 feet down into the bedrock, where the indelible footprints of Tower One and Tower Two are."

- Architect Daniel Libeskind
